We report a detailed observational study of the single pulses from the pulsar J1822$-$2256. The pulsar shows the presence of subpulse drifting, nulling as well as multiple emission modes. During these observations the pulsar existed primarily in two modes; mode A with prominent drift bands and mode B which was more disorderly without any clear subpulse drifting. A third mode C was also seen for a short duration with a different drifting periodicity compared to mode A. The nulls were present throughout the observations but were more frequent during the disorderly B mode. The nulling also exhibited periodicity with a clear peak in the fluctuation spectra. Before the transition from mode A to nulling the pulsar switched to a third drifting state with periodicity different from both mode A and C. The diversity seen in the single pulse behaviour of the pulsar J1822$-$2256 provides an unique window into the emission physics.

We report a detailed analysis of the emission behaviour of the five component, core-double cone, pulsar J2006$-$0807 (B2003$-$08). The single pulses revealed the presence of the three major phenomena of subpulse drifting, nulling and mode changing. T
he pulsar switched between four different emission modes, two of which showed systematic drifting with prominent drift bands, and were classified as modes A and B respectively. The drifting was seen primarily in the conal components and exhibited the rare phenomenon of bi-drifting, where the drift direction in the second component was opposite to the fourth component. This made PSR J2006$-$0807 the only known example where systematic drift bands were seen around a central core emission. The emission showed a gradual decrease in intensity during mode A which stabilised to a relatively constant level in the subsequent mode B. The presence of a low frequency, weak and wide structure in the fluctuation spectra was also seen primarily in the core component during modes A and B. The core component vanished during mode C and was most prominent during the fourth mode D. Both these modes were frequently interspersed with null pulses. No detectable drifting was seen during modes C and D, but the pulsar showed short duration periodic nulling in the core as well as the conal components. In addition to the four emission modes the pulsar also nulled for long durations lasting up to hundred rotation periods.
In this study, we report on a detailed single pulse polarimetric analysis of the radio emission from the pulsar J2321+6024 (B2319+60) observed with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope, over wide frequencies ranging between 300 to 500 MHz and widely s
eparated observing sessions. The pulsar profile shows the presence of four distinct conal components and belongs to a small group of pulsars classified as a conal quadrupole profile type. The single pulse sequence reveals the presence of three distinct emission modes, A, B, and ABN showing subpulse drifting. Besides, there were sequences when the pulsar did not show any drifting behaviour suggesting the possibility of a new emission state, which we have termed as mode C. The evolution of the mode changing behavior was seen during the different observing sessions with different abundance as well as the average duration of the modes seen on each date. The drifting periodicities were 7.8$pm$0.3 $P$, 4.3$pm$0.4 $P$, and 3.1$pm$0.2 $P$ in the modes A, B and ABN respectively, and showed large phase variations within the mode profile. The pulsar also showed the presence of orthogonal polarization modes, particularly in the leading and trailing components, which has different characteristics for the stronger and weaker pulses. However, no correlation was found between the emission modes and their polarization behavior, with the estimated emission heights remaining roughly constant throughout. We have used the Partially Screened Gap model to understand the connection between drifting, mode changing, and nulling.
We have carried out a detailed study of single pulse emission from the pulsar B2000+40 (J2002+4050), observed at 1.6 GHz frequencies using the Effelsberg radio telescope. The pulsar has three components which are not well separated, with the central
component resembling core emission. We have investigated modulations in single pulse behaviour using the fluctuation spectral analysis which showed presence of two prominent periodicities, around 2.5$P$ and 40$P$, respectively. The shorter periodicity was associated with the phenomenon of subpulse drifting and was seen to be absent in central core component. Drifting showed large phase variations in conal components. Additionally, the periodic modulations had significant evolution with time, varying between very sharp and highly diffuse features. In addition to drifting the pulsar also had presence of nulling in the single pulse sequence. The longer periodic feature in the fluctuation spectra was associated with nulling behaviour. The pulsar joins a select group which shows the presence of phase modulated drifting as well as periodic nulling in the presence of core emission. This provides further evidence for the two phenomena to be distinct from each other with different physical origin.
In this study we propose a classification scheme for the phenomenon of subpulse drifting in pulsars. We have assembled an exhaustive list of pulsars which exhibit subpulse drifting from previously published results as well as recent observations usin
g the Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope. We have estimated detailed phase variations corresponding to the drifting features. Based on phase behaviour the drifting population was classified into four groups : coherent phase-modulated drifting, switching phase-modulated drifting, diffuse phase-modulated drifting and low-mixed phase-modulated drifting. We have re-established the previous assertion that the subpulse drifting is primarily associated with the conal components in pulsar profile. The core components generally do not show the drifting phenomenon. However, in core emission of certain pulsars longer periodic fluctuations are seen, which are similar to periodic nulling, and likely arise due to a different physical phenomenon. In general the nature of the phase variations of the drifting features across the pulsar profile appears to be associated with specific pulsar profile classes, but we also find several examples that show departures from this trend. It has also been claimed in previous works that the spin-down energy loss is anti-correlated with the drifting periodicity. We have verified this dependence using a larger sample of drifting measurements.
By analysing the data acquired from the Parkes 64-m radio telescope at 1369 MHz, we report on the phase-stationary non-drift amplitude modulation observed in PSR J1048-5832. The high-sensitivity observations revealed that the central and trailing com
ponents of the pulse profile of this pulsar switch between a strong mode and a weak mode periodically. However, the leading component remains unchanged. Polarization properties of the strong and weak modes are investigated. Considering the similarity to mode changing, we argue that the periodic amplitude modulation in PSR J1048$-$5832 is periodic mode changing. The fluctuation spectral analysis showed that the modulation period is very short (~2.1 s or 17 P1), where P1 is the rotation period of the pulsar. We find that this periodic amplitude modulation is hard to explain by existing models that account for the periodic phenomena in pulsars like subpulse drifting.
