Abstract
We investigate the geometry of the magnetic field of rotation-powered pulsars. A new method for calculating an angle (β) between the spin and magnetic dipole axes of a neutron star (NS) in the ejector stage is considered within the frame of the magnetic dipole energy loss mechanism. We estimate the surface magnetic field strength (Bns) for a population of known neutron stars in the radio pulsar (ejector) stage. The evaluated Bns(β) may differ by an order of magnitude from the values without considering the angle β. It is shown that Bns(β) lies in the range 108–1014G for a known population of short and middle periodic radio pulsars.
