Abstract

The analytical calculations for twisted magnetosphere of magnetars are compared with recent numerical simulations. A larger polar cap, a smaller magnetospheric opening radius in previous analytical modelings are confirmed by the numerical simulations. In the case of magnetars, the particle outflow luminosity in the open field line regions may be powered by the magnetic energy.
