Abstract
We model the formation of magnetospheric components of millisecond pulsar l ight curves, deriving an approximate model for the curved space, "swept-bac k" dipole field and following photon emission, propagation, and scattering. Magnetospheric pulse components are strongly affected by rapid rotation an d Schwarzschild effects.
