A Model of High Energy Activity of Millisecond Pulsars in Globular Clusters

2011 
Resluts of 3D numerical simulations in the framework of pair starved polar cap model (PSPC) for millisecond pulsars are presented. In the investigated PSPC model electric field structure highly depends on the pulsar inclination which is clearly visible in the computed spectra of electrons escaping pulsar magnetosphere which become bimodal with the increasing inclination. This is an important result for modelling very high energy radiation from globular clusters where currently the standard power law or monoenergetic electron distributions are used.
