Abstract: | Radio luminosities of pulsars depend on their periods and derivatives of periods. The parameters of these dependences and the independent distances for 288 pulsars are determined. Known dispersion measures are used for determination of the mean electron densities in the direction of pulsars. The results obtained are used for investigation of the large-scale distribution of electron concentration in the galaxy. The maximum value of that distribution is found at a distance of 9 kpc from the galactic center in the Sagittarius arm. In the interarm regions electron density decreases roughly exponentially.Published in Astrofizika, Vol. 38, No. 4, pp. 587–592, October–December, 1995. |
