12 Nov 1999 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | MIT), V. M. Kaspi (MIT), and R. N. Manchester (ATNF | Abstract: | We present radio polarimetry results for nine Southern pulsars. Six of the nine are young, with characteristic ages less than 100 kyr and high spin-down luminosities. All six show significant linear polarization, and we confirm a previously noticed trend in which the degree of linear polarization increases with spin-down luminosity. We have used the rotating vector model to fit the observed position angle data for PSR J1513-5908 (B1509-58). We find that a magnetic inclination angle alpha > 60 degrees is excluded at the 3-sigma level in the fit, and that the geometry suggested by the morphology of an apparent bipolar X-ray outflow is marginally inconsistent with a recent model of the pulsar magnetosphere. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9911232 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
