Scientific paper

A polar cap pulsar model is outlined which leads to a cone of coherent radio emission with properties resembling observations. Attention is given to associating coupled 10 to the 12th V drifting-ion-e(+) injection into the region above the polar cap with observed pulsar behavior, and to understanding how these currents lead to strong coherent radio emission. Also considered are current flow in a pulsar magnetosphere, potential drops and relativistic ion, electron and positron flows. In addition, observational data is reviewed, including position angles and circular polarization of pulses; motion of subpulses and their polarization, and adiabatic walking of a linearly polarized mode are also discussed.
