A quantitative model for drifting subpulses in PSR B0809+74.

ROSEN R. and DEMOREST P.

Abstract (from CDS):

In this paper, we analyze high time resolution single-pulse data of PSR B0809+74 at 820 MHz. We compare the subpulse phase behavior, undocumented at 820 MHz, with previously published results. The subpulse period changes over time and we measure a subpulse phase jump, when visible, that ranges from 95° to 147°. We find a correlation between the subpulse modulation, subpulse phase, and orthogonal polarization modes. This variety of complicated behavior is not well understood and is not easily explained within the framework of existing models, most of which are founded on the drifting spark model of Ruderman & Sutherland. We quantitatively fit our data with a non-radial oscillation model of Clemens & Rosen and show that the model can accurately reproduce the drifting subpulses, orthogonal polarization modes, subpulse phase jump, and can explain the correlation between all these features.
