Sporadic Pulsar Emission at Low Radio Frequencies
Event Start:
2019-10-28T15:00:00
Event End:
2019-10-28T16:00:00
Event Information:
Pulsars are unparalleled astrophysical tools, yet, after more than 50 years of research, we still do not fully understand the mechanism responsible for their radio emission. To further complicate the matter, the phenomenon of emission intermittency, where the pulsar radio emission ceases unpredictably, is also a mystery.
