Hey, as per i know pulsars emit EM radiation . . . Can anyone please explain the reason behind this in terms of quantum mechanics. I want to know what happens at the quantum level. All I know is that it takes place due to misalignment of magnetic and rotational axis...

I am in high school so it is my request to explain it accordingly...

Well, since you don't know any quantum mechanics yet, that's a pretty tall order. More importantly, a classical description is perfectly good to explain pulsar radiation.
 
Ya then i will have to study it in detail to find the answer.
