Figure 7:
Subpulse-pattern longitude jumps over continuous nulls. Each mark is
the jump over one null.
a) Mapped into a region from
P2 to
P2 around the expected location in
the continuous-drift case. b) The same data, duplicated to show
subpulse grouping, with simulated pre-null subpulse positions added
for clarity. The vertical dashed-dotted line predicts subpulse
positions for a total stop of all drift during the null. The dashed
lines are the prediction if drifting continuous during the null as it
did before, for non-aliased drift. The dotted lines show which subpulses
one spark makes if the drift is aliased. c) The same data, now
with the predicted aliased subpulse path (dotted line), and the
actual lower driftrate (solid line). |
