Scientific paper

A tachyonic spectral fit to the pulsed γ-ray flux of the Crab is performed, based on the superluminal spectral densities generated by ultra-relativistic electrons. The γ-ray wideband of the pulsar can be reproduced by a tachyonic cascade spectrum, capable of generating the spectral curvature in double-logarithmic plots as well as the extended spectral plateau defined by COMPTEL and EGRET flux points in the MeV band. Estimates on the magnetospheric electron population generating the radiation are inferred from the spectral fit, such as power-law indices, electron temperature and the electronic source count.
