I guess that, from a statistical perspective, the linear polarization of pulsars is positively correlated with their brightness. Has there been any relevant paper discussing this issue?
In a pulsar paper, two terms were mentioned: circular polarization fraction and absolute circular polarization fraction.
1. What is the absolute circular polarization fraction?
2. What is the difference between them?
I want to know how to judge the coherent radiation on the star from the data received by the radio telescope.
Does it mean that if polarized light is received, it can be determined that coherent radiation has appeared on the star?
If coherent radio emission is generated by the cyclotron effect on the electron, how does the cyclotron effect make the electron emit coherent radio waves of the same frequency?
I can understand that the cyclotron effect generates light radiation, but I cannot understand the principle of...
Some papers mention the coherent radiation of stars, such as this one:

I want to know under what conditions can a star exhibit coherent radiation?
Our two papers were approved by two editors and four reviewers. Professor Bellan of Caltech was also one of the reviewers. He was recommended by us as a reviewer, and he was contacted later. He wrote a book called "fundamentals of plasma physics".
Of course, they may all be wrong. So, hope you...
