We are modeling the high frequency component of pulsar radiation, which is produced by curvature radiation, inverse Compton scattering, synchotron radiation, and etc. Curvature radiation, which initiates the cascade of radiation, requires a magnetic field structure that contains multipoles higher than only the dipole. We have investigated the spontaneous magnetization of the neutron interior to produce the pulsar magnetic field in two regimes: T=0 and T!=q0. The approximate solution, T=0, produces surface magnetic field values (1012-13G) consistent with observations and the magnetic field structure produced contains higher order multipoles. The numerical solution, T>0, also exhibits spontaneous magnetization. Our present task is to finish the numerical solutions of T>0. Research funded by Virginia Space Grant.
