Undergrad The linear polarization and brightness of pulsars

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the correlation between the linear polarization and brightness of pulsars, suggesting a positive relationship. Participants inquire about existing research or papers that explore this correlation in detail. The need for statistical analysis in understanding pulsar characteristics is emphasized. There is an interest in how this correlation could impact the study of pulsar emissions. Overall, the conversation seeks to identify relevant literature on the topic.

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?
 

Thread 'Lunar Orbit Issues & Lunar Clocks'

I recently purchased a lunar clock intended as a Christmas present for a young family friend who has become interested in astronomy. The clock face shows twelve images of the Moon in all its main phases, with the Full Moon depicted at the "twelve o'clock" position. Now I purchased this clock especially early to allow time to check on its accuracy. After waiting for a full lunar orbit to occur, I have since discovered that the clock time when measured relative to its lunar images (that's to...
