Maser pulse emission mechanisms
Description
The difficulties with ''coherent'' curvature emission by bunches of electrons formed through a streaming instability suggest that it cannot account for the observed radio emission for existing polar-cap models of pulsars. Amongst alternative maser mechanisms, that involving acceleration emission due to the electric fields in the waves generated by the bunching instability can account for the gross properties of the observed emission, provided that the relativistic electrons have γ < or approximately equal to 10 in the wave frame.
