Theory of the polarization of pulsar radio radiation
Description
The theory of quasi-transverse propagation of radio radiation in pulsar magnetospheres leads to a model in which the intrinsic pulsar emission is linearly polarized, and circular polarization is produced as an effect of the quasi-transverse propagation. Various other observed features of the polarization are likewise explained
