Not long ago, we published a new pulsar radiation model at MNRAS (https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae909).
According to our model, it is speculated that the linear polarization component of pulsars should be statistically positively correlated with theirs brightness. But we don't know if anyone...
I have a question to ask everyone.
Is there a positive correlation between the linear polarization degree of pulsars and their brightness in statistics? Or, is it true that the brighter the pulsar, the greater the linear polarization component?
I guess that, from a statistical perspective, the linear polarization of pulsars is positively correlated with their brightness. Has there been any relevant paper discussing this issue?
In a pulsar paper, two terms were mentioned: circular polarization fraction and absolute circular polarization fraction.
1. What is the absolute circular polarization fraction?
2. What is the difference between them?
I want to know how to judge the coherent radiation on the star from the data received by the radio telescope.
Does it mean that if polarized light is received, it can be determined that coherent radiation has appeared on the star?
If coherent radio emission is generated by the cyclotron effect on the electron, how does the cyclotron effect make the electron emit coherent radio waves of the same frequency?
I can understand that the cyclotron effect generates light radiation, but I cannot understand the principle of...
Some papers mention the coherent radiation of stars, such as this one:

I want to know under what conditions can a star exhibit coherent radiation?
