Single Pulse Polarimetry of the Vela Pulsar

Multi-frequency, single-pulse polarimetric observations of the Vela pulsar have been made using the VLA. These high time resolution measurements allow us to probe the geometry, and the time dependent characteristics of the radio emission region. Evidence for multiple emission components with differi...

Zusammenfassung:Multi-frequency, single-pulse polarimetric observations of the Vela pulsar have been made using the VLA. These high time resolution measurements allow us to probe the geometry, and the time dependent characteristics of the radio emission region. Evidence for multiple emission components with differing spectral indices is found.
