Abstract

The pulse profile of pulsar gives geometric information about pulsar's radiation model. After investigating the pulse profiles of PSR B1642-03 and PSR B0950+08, we calculate the ratios of beam width and the emission height between different frequencies. We find that the ratios are almost constants as inclination angle α changes from 0 to 90. The ratios can be used to test pulsar's radiation model. In particular it can well constrain the parameter space of the inverse Compton scattering (ICS) model. These constrained parameters indicate some physical implication for the ICS model.
