Abstract

An aligned pulsar whose rotation axis and magnetic dipole axis are parallel should be positively charged. We consider the electromagnetic field both inside and outside the star under a specific condition and derive the total charge of a pulsar. The statistical relation between the pulsar's rotation energy loss rate (or the period derivative) and the period may imply that the millisecond radio pulsars with small periods could be low-mass bare strange stars.
