Rocking the lighthouse: Circumpulsar asteroids and radio intermittency
Neutral, circumpulsar debris that enters the magnetospheres of neutron stars can disrupt current flows and electromagnetic radiation and thereby account for some of the intermittency seen in radio pulsars. This paper considers asteroids that form from supernova fallback material and how they migrate...
