EVOLUTION OF THE CRAB NEBULA RADIO EMISSION

open access: greenOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
In 1977-1992 the flux density of the Crab Nebula in respect to Orion Nebula was measured at the frequency of 927 MHz with the same 10-m radio telescope.

Bursts of the Crab Nebula gamma-ray emission at high and ultra-high energies [PDF]

open access: diamondEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Characteristics of the flares of gamma rays detected from the Crab Nebula by the AGILE and Fermi-LAT satellite instruments are compared with those of a gamma ray burst recorded by several air shower arrays on February 23, 1989 and with one recent ...

A PeVatron Candidate: Modeling the Boomerang Nebula in X-ray Band

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Pulsar wind nebula (PWN) Boomerang and the associated supernova remnant (SNR) G106.3+2.7 are among candidates for the ultra-high-energy (UHE) gamma-ray counterparts published by LHAASO.

The Spatial and Emission Properties of the Large [O iii] Emission Nebula Near M31

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Drechsler et al. reported the unexpected discovery of a 1.°5 long [O iii ] emission nebula 1.°2 southeast of the M31 nucleus. Here we present additional images of this large emission arc, called the Strottner–Drechsler–Sainty Object (SDSO), along with ...

Mapping NGC 7027 in New Light: CO+ and HCO+ Emission Reveal Its Photon- and X-Ray-dominated Regions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
The young and well-studied planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7027 harbors significant molecular gas that is irradiated by luminous, pointlike UV (central star) and diffuse (shocked nebular) X-ray emission.

Improved Measurements of the IXPE Crab Polarization

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
X-ray polarization from the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) provides an important new probe of the geometry of the pulsar emission zone and of particle acceleration in the surrounding pulsar wind nebula.

Discovery of GeV Gamma-Ray Emission from Pulsar Wind Nebula Kes 75 and PSR J1846–0258

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We report the detection of gamma-ray emission from pulsar wind nebula (PWN) Kes 75 and PSR J1846−0258. Through modeling the spectral energy distribution incorporating the new Fermi-LAT data, we find that the observed gamma-ray emission is likely a ...

Backscattering and Line Broadening in Orion

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2022
Examination of emission lines in high-velocity-resolution optical spectra of the Orion Nebula confirms that the velocity component on the red wing of the main ionization front emission line is due to backscattering in the Photon Dominated Region.

Resolving the Emission Regions of the Crab Pulsar’s Giant Pulses. II. Evidence for Relativistic Motion

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Crab Pulsar is the prime example of an emitter of giant pulses. These short, very bright pulses are thought to originate near the light cylinder, at ∼1600 km from the pulsar.

Directly Tracing Cool Filamentary Accretion over >100 kpc into the Interstellar Medium of a Quasar Host at z = 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
We report the discovery of giant (50−100 kpc) [O ii ] emitting nebulae with MUSE in the field of TXS 0206−048, a luminous quasar at z = 1.13. “Down-the-barrel” UV spectra of the quasar show absorption at velocities coincident with those of the extended ...
