Abstract
We model the formation of magnetospheric components of millisecond pulsar light curves, deriving an approximate model for the curved space, `swept-back' dipole field and following photon emission, propagation, and scattering. Magnetospheric pulse components are strongly affected by rapid rotation and Schwarzschild effects.Comment: submitted to ApKeywords
