Description
In analogy with the Solar system planets, we predict the existence of aurora on planets around millisecond pulsars. From our special relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (RMHD) simulations of magnetospheric pulsar-planet interaction, we estimate the radio emission from such systems and provide parameters for such a detection. It would be the first radio detection of an extrasolar planet and the first direct probe in the pulsar wind.
