Abstract

Lightcurves and broadband energy spectra of the brightest X/γ-ray sources among the rotation powered pulsars exhibit unexpected richness of features, making each object almost a unique case. This contribution presents how our models of high-energy radiation within the framework of SCLF (space charge limited flow) polar-cap scenarios tackle with some of these challenges.
