description PACS numbers: 97.60.Gb, 97.60.Jd, 95.30.LzThe stationary axisymmetric force-free magnetosphere of a pulsar is considered by accounting for the polar gap and current circuit. Adjustment of the vacuum polar gap and the closing current sheet with the force-free magnetosphere of a monopolar structure is studied. For the transition layer between the vacuum and force-free regions, the self-consistent distributions of fields, currents and charges are analyzed, as well as the force and energetic balance examined. As is shown, in the case considered the transition layer characteristic scale is no less than the polar gap altitude, whereas the current closure is dissipation-free. The consequences of the results obtained for the interpretation of pulsar emission are discussed. In particular, the correlation between the radio and X-ray emission modes in the pulsar PSR B0943+10 is explained.Key words: neutron star, pulsar, force-free magnetosphere, polar gap, pulsar current circuitManuscript submitted 09.11.2015Radio phys. radio astron. 2015, 20(4): 275-285REFERENCES1.

Изучено согласование вакуумного полярного зазора и слоя замыкающего тока с бессиловой магнитосферой монопольной структуры. Для переходного слоя между вакуумной и бессиловой областями проанализированы самосогласованные распределения полей, токов и зарядов, а также исследован силовой и энергетический баланс. Показано, что в рассматриваемом случае характерный размер переходного слоя не меньше высоты полярного зазора, а замыкание тока является недиссипативным. Обсуждены следствия полученных результатов для интерпретации излучения пульсаров. В частности, объяснена связь мод радио- и рентгеновского излучения в пульсаре PSR B0943+10.Ключевые слова: нейтронная звезда, пульсар, бессиловая магнитосфера, полярный зазор, токовая цепь пульсараСтатья поступила в редакцию 09.11.2015Radio phys. radio astron. 2015, 20(4): 275-285СПИСОК ЛИТЕРАТУРЫ1.
