Slice through the ﹩{\boldsymbol{ \mu }} -{{{\bf \Omega }}_{*}}﹩ plane for the χ = 60° pulsar magnetosphere with abundant pair injection, shown after two rotational periods, ﹩{{R}_{*}}/{{R}_{{\rm LC}}}=0.3.﹩ (a), (b) Electron and positron density distribution, normalized by ﹩{{{\Omega }}_{*}}B/2\pi ec﹩. Poloidal field lines are shown in black. (c) Out-of-plane component of the magnetic field (color). (d) Current component parallel to the magnetic field, normalized by ﹩{{{\Omega }}_{*}}B/2\pi ﹩.
