The radio and gamma-ray light curves of these MSPs have been modeled in the framework of the retarded vacuum dipole magnetic field. Likelihood fitting of the radio and gamma-ray light curves with geometric emission models allows us to give model-dependent confidence contours for the viewing geometry in these systems which are complementary to those from polarization measurements.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-12-16T15:18:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "98.70.Rz", "97.60.Gb", "95.55.Ka", "95.85.Sz" ], "keywords": [ "gamma-ray millisecond pulsar", "fermi lat", "gamma-ray light curves", "observations", "fermi large area telescope" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1063/1.3615124" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 881653, "adsabs": "2011AIPC.1357..237J" } } }
