摘要：
Motivated by the Fermi observations of some gamma-ray pulsars in which the phases of radio and gamma-ray peaks are almost the same, we investigate the outer gap model in a retarded dipole with a current-induced magnetic field and apply it to explain pulsed gamma-ray properties of the Crab pulsar. Our results show that the observed gamma-ray energy-dependent light curves, which almost align with the radio light curve and phase averaged spectrum for the Crab pulsar, are reproduced well.
