Random Number Generation from Pulsars

open access: yes
Pulsars exhibit signals with precise inter-arrival times that are on the order of milliseconds to seconds, depending on the individual pulsar. There are subtle variations in the timing of pulsar signals. We show that these variations can serve as a natural entropy source for the creation of Random Number Generators (RNGs).

Generation of relativistic particles in pulsar magnetospheres

open access: yes, 1985
The problem - fundamental for the physics of pulsars - of determining the global structure of the magnetosphere in a self-consistent way has not yet been solved satisfactorily. We report on some progress in this direction, which we have achieved by studying the trajectories of individual charged particles in the electromagnetic vacuum fields of an ...

Testing General Relativity with Pulsar Timing Arrays

open access: yesProceedings of the Wisconsin Space Conference, 2012
Pulsar timing arrays are a promising tool for probing the universe through gravitational radiation. A variety of astrophysical and cosmological sources are expected to contribute to a stochastic background of gravitational waves (GWs) in the pulsar timing array (PTA) frequency band.

Generation of nanoflares in the Crab pulsar

open access: yes, 2017
We study dynamics of drift waves in the pair plasma of pulsar magnetosphere. It is shown that nonlinear of the drift waves with plasma particles leads to the formation of small scale structures. We show that cyclotron instability developed within these nonlinear structures can be responsible for the formation of nanoshots discovered in the radio ...
