Abstract (from CDS):
We show the results of microsecond resolution radio data analysis focused on flux measurements of single pulses of PSR B1133+16. The data were recorded at 4.85 and 8.35GHz with 0.5- and 1.1-GHz bandwidth, respectively, using Radio Telescope Effelsberg (Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie). The most important conclusion of the analysis is that the strongest single pulse emission at 4.85 and 8.35GHz contributes almost exclusively to the trailing part of the leading component of the pulsar mean profile, whereas studies at lower frequencies report that the contribution is spread almost uniformly, covering all phases of the pulsar mean profile. We also estimate the radio emission heights to be around 1-2 percent of the light-cylinder radius, which is in agreement with previous studies. Additionally, these observations allowed us to add two more measurements of the flux density to the PSR B1133+16 broad-band radio spectrum, covering frequencies from 16.7MHz up to 32GHz. We fit two different models to the spectrum: a broken power law and a spectrum based on the flicker-noise model, which represents the spectrum in a simpler, but similarly accurate, way.
