Radio emission of the Crab and Crab-like pulsars [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018 The pulsar radio emission is commonly associated with the plasma outflow in the open field line tube; then a pencil beam is emitted along the pulsar magnetic axis. Observations suggest that there is an additional radio emission mechanism specific for pulsars with high magnetic field at the light cylinder. These pulsars are known to be strong sources of
