Enlarging the Parameter Space and our Understanding or The Radio Emission of Millisecond Pulsars

Abstract

The understanding of pulsar radio emission demands a close look at all regions of the huge parameter space present for pulsar observations. In this review we concentrate on the space given by the range of observed pulse periods, spanning four orders of magnitude. A comparative study of the emission properties of millisecond pulsars and normal pulsars, both at radio and high energy frequencies, promises to shed light on the still poorly understood emission theory.
