Synchrotron emission from an oblique rotator and its application to pulsars

Description

A method is presented which permits rapid interpretation of the synchrotron patterns emitted by a charged particle moving in the uniform magnetic field of an oblique rotator. The analysis predicts a variety of intensity and polarization patterns that are compared with data from a number of pulsars. It also predicts the observed frequency dependence of the peak-to-peak separation of two double-peaked pulsars
