text: While Earth has a magnetic field that's just strong enough to exert a gentle tug on a compass needle, pulsars have magnetic fields that range from 100 million times to 1 quadrillion (a million billion) times stronger than Earth's.
text: However, in reality, as the pulsar spins, it whips the magnetic field around with it, creating a much more tangled picture.
text: The region above the surface of the pulsar that is dominated by the magnetic field is called the magnetosphere.
text: Pulsars produce magnetic fields approximately a trillion times more intense than Earth's.
text: The addition of this mass to the pulsar causes it to spin faster and buries its magnetic field, and also strips the companion star down to a white dwarf.
text: The addition of this mass to the pulsar causes it to spin faster and buries its magnetic field, and also strips the companion star down to a white dwarf.
text: Because pulsars are rotating and because rotating charged particles generate magnetic fields, there’s all sorts of complicated, scary physics going onâ€¦
text: After a pulsar is born, its magnetic field will exert a torque and slow it down, with typical spindown rates of 10^
text: A pulsar is a rapidly spinning neutron star that funnels large amounts of radiation through its magnetic field.
text: Another theory suggested that a pulsar was formed instead, and that its magnetic field was small or unusual, preventing us from detecting it.
text: (A pulsar is a neutron star that spins so fast that, when observed with radio telescopes from Earth, its magnetic field seems to pulse like a strobe light.)
text: The addition of this mass to the pulsar causes it to spin faster and buries its magnetic field, and also strips the companion star down to a white dwarf.
text: A pulsar is a rapidly spinning neutron star that funnels large amounts of radiation through its magnetic field.
text: They rapidly rotate and emit a beam of radio waves along their magnetic field axis – similar to the spotlight of a lighthouse.
text: But others propose the opposite theory: that the radio pulsar comes first and, over time, its magnetic field emerges from the supernova's rubble, and then the magnetar-like outbursts begin.
