The many faces of pulsars – the case of PSR B0833-45

Abstract A review of observational properties of the Vela pulsar across a wide energy spectrum is given. Then current approaches to the modelling of pulsars and their wind zones are briefly presented. The challenges posed to the models by the diversity of Vela’s light curves in different energy rang...

The challenges posed to the models by the diversity of Vela’s light curves in different energy ranges are discussed. Ausführliche Beschreibung
