Snapshot of the isolated pulsar simulation after 12.4 pulsar spin periods. The central pulsar is represented by a black disk on left panels and a white disk on right panels, for better visualization purposes. From top-left to bottom-right: toroidal magnetic field ( B ϕ / B )( R LC r/ r 2 ) $ (B_\phi/B_\star)(R_{\rm LC} r/r_\star^{2}) $, where solid lines are the magnetic field lines; the mean Lorentz factor of particles ⟨γ⟩; the bulk Lorentz factor of the plasma Γ; and the isotropic synchrotron power emitted by the particles per unit of volume (d P rad /dV)( r 2 / r 2 ) $ ({\rm d}P_{\rm rad}/{\rm d}V)(r^{2}/r_\star^{2}) $. Radii are given in units of the light cylinder radius, represented by the red circle.
