Very high energy emission of Crab-like pulsars driven by the Cherenkov drift radiation.

OSMANOV Z.

Abstract (from CDS):

In this paper, we study the generation of very high energy (VHE) emission in Crab-like pulsars driven by means of the feedback of Cherenkov drift waves on distribution of magnetospheric electrons. We have found that the unstable Cherenkov drift modes lead to the quasi-linear diffusion, keeping the pitch angles from vanishing, which in turn, maintains the synchrotron mechanism. Considering the Crab-like pulsars it has been shown that the growth rate of the Cherenkov drift instability is quite high, indicating high efficiency of the process. Analysing the mechanism for the typical parameters we have found that the Cherenkov drift emission from the extreme UV to hard X-rays is strongly correlated with the VHE synchrotron emission in the GeV band.
