Stokes tomography of radio pulsar magnetospheres. I. Linear polarization

, 2010
Polarimetric studies of pulsar radio emission traditionally concentrate on how the Stokes vector (I, Q, U, V) varies with pulse longitude, with special emphasis on the position angle (PA) swing of the linearly polarized component.
