Scientific paper

Radio emission from pulsars contain valuable information about geometry of the pulsar. In particular, polarization angle curves can be related to geometry via the popular rotating vector model. A modification to the rotating vector model proposed by Blaskiewicz, Cordes, and Wasserman (1991) allows for the additional measure of the emission height. At large heights, these analytic formulas break down. By comparing the analytic formulas to numerical simulations of emission we have performed probabilistic analysis to more precisely define this breakdown.
