Scientific paper

It is pointed out that the standard model for pulsar electrodynamics is based on a false premise, related to neglecting the displacement current, and the associated need for current screening. Wave dispersion in the standard model is reviewed, and its relation to the interpretation of pulsar radio emission and its polarization is discussed. Inclusion of the displacement current results in large-amplitude oscillations; some of the implications of these oscillations on the interpretation of the radio emission are discussed.
