Particle-in-Cell Simulations and their Applications to Magnetospheres of Neutron Stars

Neutron stars are surrounded by dense magnetospheres with nontrivial magnetic field structure. They are sources of multi-band emission from radio waves to very high energy gamma-rays. Pulsar wind nebulae observations also show that a large number of e^± pairs flow from the neutron star, which are pr...
