In this paper we propose a new model of the coherent pulsar radio emission, based on previous work of Ruderman and Sutherland (1975). We assume a non-stationary polar gap braking down via a number of localized spark discharges, feeding a corresponding subpulse-associated plasma columns in the pulsar magnetosphere. Central spark operates at the local pole of the surface magnetic field and other sparks perform more or less ordered circumferential motion around it due to the E×B drift....
