长周期脉冲星J1840−0840的脉冲消零与子脉冲漂移特性研究

Exploration of the Pulse Nulling and Subpulse Drifting Properties from the Long-period Pulsar J1840−0840

  • 摘要: 研究基于印度巨型米波射电望远镜和德国Effelsberg 100 m射电望远镜对长周期脉冲星J1840-0840的双频观测, 系统揭示了它的复杂辐射行为. 该脉冲星的平均脉冲轮廓呈现两个显著分离的辐射成分, 平均轮廓随频率的演化关系符合经典的半径-频率关系的理论预期, 这表明脉冲星的射电辐射高度随观测频率的升高而系统性降低. 单脉冲分析发现该脉冲星具有显著的脉冲消零和子脉冲漂移特性. 在625 MHz和1358 MHz的消零比分别为32.63% \pm 10.46%和28.36% \pm 7.35%. 脉冲爆发态和消零态的发生率随持续时间的增加呈指数衰减特征. 此外, PSR J1840-0840表现出准周期性的消零现象, 在625 MHz具有两个调制周期, 分别为: (50.57 \pm 9.03)和(21.33 \pm 3.91)倍的自转周期, 在1358 MHz仅有一个调制周期, 为(31.37 \pm11.90)倍的自转周期. 通过对每个漂移带进行建模, 得到了漂移带之间的相位间隔、漂移周期和漂移率随时间的演化关系, 结果显示子脉冲漂移参数具有显著的频率相关性.

     

    Abstract: This study presents a systematic investigation of the complex radiation behavior of the long-period pulsar J1840−0840 based on dual-frequency observations conducted with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) in India and the 100-meter Effelsberg radio telescope in Germany. The average pulse profile of this pulsar exhibits two distinct and spatially separated radiation components. The frequency evolution of the average profile is consistent with the theoretical predictions of the classical radius-frequency relation, indicating that the radio emission height of the pulsar systematically decreases with increasing observation frequency. Single-pulse analysis reveals significant pulse nulling and subpulse drifting characteristics in this pulsar. The nulling fractions at 625 MHz and 1358 MHz are 32.63% \pm 10.46% and 28.36% \pm 7.35%, respectively. The occurrence rates of both pulse burst and nulling states exhibit an exponential decay with increasing duration. Additionally, PSR J1840−0840 shows quasi-periodic nulling behavior, with two modulation periods at 625 MHz, namely (50.57 \pm 9.03) and (21.33 \pm 3.91) times the spin period, and one modulation period at 1358 MHz, which is (31.37 \pm 11.90) times the spin period. By modeling each drifting band, the phase separation, drift period, and drift rate evolution over time were obtained. The results indicate a significant frequency dependence of the subpulse drifting parameters.
