Beaming Due to Comptonisation in X-ray Pulsars
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Comptonisation may play an important role in determining beam patterns and hence pulse profiles in X-ray pulsars. We describe a Monte Carlo simulation used to investigate the spectra and pulse profiles emitted by two semi-infinite homogeneous cyclindrical accretion columns diametrically located on the surface of a ‘canonical’ neutron star.
