Abstract The gamma-ray luminosity of the order of 10 to the 30th power ergs/s around an energy of the order of 1 TeV observed for the Crab pulsar by Grindlay, Helmken, and Weekes (1976) provides the location of emission, the energy, and the number of charges which radiate in the observed gamma-ray band. The assumption involved in the derivation is that curvature radiation produces the observed gamma-ray luminosity. The small number of high-energy charges required from the observation indicates that a turbulent acceleration region is more plausible than the usual acceleration region where an intense static electric field plays the major role.
