Photon-Count Statistics of Crab X-ray Pulses: Skellam Behavior and Excess Variance in the Main Pulse
Crab pulsar interpulse X-ray counts match the Skellam distribution expected from two independent Poisson processes, while the main pulse shows excess variance that disappears upon averaging over rotations with no detected pulse-to-pulse memory.
