2 Jan 2022 | Abstract: | Several conjectures have been put forward to explain the RRATs, the newest
subclass of neutron stars, and their connections to other radio pulsars. This
work discusses these conjectures in the context of the characteristic
properties of the RRAT population. Contrary to expectations, it is seen that -
a) the RRAT population is statistically un-correlated with the nulling pulsars,
and b) the RRAT phenomenon is unlikely to be related to old age or death-line
proximity. It is more likely that the special emission property of RRATs is a
result of certain restructuring of their magnetic fields, resulting from
processes like accretion or glitch. | Source: | arXiv, 2201.00295 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
