J/AZh/83/542        Integrated Radio Luminosities of Pulsars      (Malov+, 2006)

Integrated Radio Luminosities of Pulsars. Malov I.F., Malov O.I. <Astron. Zh. 83, 542 (2006)> =2006AZh...83...542M =2006ARep..50...483M
ADC_Keywords: Pulsars; Radio sources Abstract: The integrated radio luminosities of 311 long-period (P>0.1s) and 27 short-period (P<0.1s) pulsars have been calculated using a new compilation of radio spectra. The luminosities are in the range 1027-1030erg/s for 88% of the long-period pulsars and 1028-1031erg/s for 88% of the short-period pulsars. We find a high correlation between the luminosity L and the estimate L1=S(400)*d2 from the catalog of Taylor et al. (1993, See Cat. VII/189. The factor 'eta' for transformation of the rotational energy of the neutron star into radio emission increases/decreases with increasing period for long-period/short-period pulsars. The mean value of 'eta'=-3.73 for the long-period and -4.85 for the short-period pulsars. File Summary:
