Pulsars with Jets May Harbor Dynamically Important Disks
Pulsars with Jets May Harbor Dynamically Important Disks
For many astrophysical sources with jets, there is evidence of the contemporaneous presence of disks. In contrast, pulsars such as the Crab and Vela show jets but have not yet revealed direct evidence for accretion disks. Here we show that for such pulsars, an accretion disk radiating below detectable thresholds …
