Kinematic Projecting of Pulsar Profiles
Abstract
We suggest a technique for construction of profiles of incoherent pulsar emission using instantaneous angular distribution indicatrix of radiation from relativistic source moving in the neutron star magnetosphere. In the general case the indicatrix depends on the kinematic parameters of radiation source such as velocity and acceleration. The method is illustrated by calculation of the profiles of pulsar radiation based on synchrotron radiation indicatrix. This technique can be easily generalized for the case of other types of relativistic particles radiation. The considered profiles are compared with observed ones. A good agreement was found with profiles of gamma-pulsars - Geminga, Crab and Vela.
