Numerical calculations of the electron-cap shape of a rapidly rotating neutron star with a strong magnetic field have been provided. It is supposed that the magnetic dipole axis is aligned and that there is no ejection of positively charged particles from the star's surface. The total charge of the star has been calculated. Estimation of the character of charged-particle motion in the electromagnetic field of the star has been obtained. It is shown that two streams of charged particles escape from the stellar surface. The electron stream moves along the magnetic axis and is enveloped by a proton-positron stream, which is generated by returning hard electrons accelerated by the electromagnetic field of the star.
