On the High-Energy Emission of the Pulsar PSR B1055--52. (1998). Revista Mexicana De Astronomía Y Astrofísica, 34(1), 29-35. https://astronomia.unam.mx/journals/rmxaa/article/view/1998rmxaa..34...29r
Abstract
PSR B1055--52 is one of the very few pulsars detected at all energy bands, from radio to γ-rays. It is also the pulsar with the highest efficiency for converting rotational energy in γ-ray emission. In this paper, the main mechanisms that could generate the high-energy emission in this object are discussed and different predictions from the main models are compared with recent data obtained by ROSAT, ASCA, and Compton satellites. The dispersion measure distance to the pulsar is reconsidered in the light of the results.Similar Articles
