12 Jul 2004 | | Journal: | Mon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc. 349 (2004) 213-224 | | Subject: | astro-ph | | Affiliation: | 1,2), Jonathan Mestel , Leon Mestel & Geoffrey A.E. Wright (1. Sussex;2. Cardiff;3. Imperial College | | Abstract: | The non-dissipative relativistic force-free condition should be a good approximation to describe the electromagnetic field in much of the pulsar magnetosphere, but we may plausibly expect it to break down in singular domains. Self-consistent magnetospheric solutions are found with field lines closing both at and within the light-cylinder. In general, the detailed properties of the solutions may be affected critically by the physics determining the appropriate choice of equatorial boundary condition beyond the light-cylinder. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0407227 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
