Pulsar Wind Nebulae with Thick Toroidal Structure [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We investigate a class of pulsar wind nebulae that show synchrotron emission from a thick toroidal structure. The best studied such object is the small radio and X-ray nebula around the Vela pulsar, which can be interpreted as the result of interaction ...

The theory of pulsar winds and nebulae [PDF]

, 2007
We review current theoretical ideas on pulsar winds and their surrounding nebulae. Relativistic MHD models of the wind of the aligned rotator, and of the striped wind, together with models of magnetic dissipation are discussed.

GEMINGA’S PUZZLING PULSAR WIND NEBULA [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2017
ABSTRACT We report on six new Chandra observations of the Geminga pulsar wind nebula (PWN). The PWN consists of three distinct elongated structures—two ≈ 0.2 d

DA 495: An Aging Pulsar Wind Nebula [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2008
We present a radio continuum study of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) DA 495 (G65.7+1.2), including images of total intensity and linear polarization from 408 to 10550 MHz based on the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey and observations with the Effelsberg 100-m Radio Telescope.

Pulsar wind nebulae created by fast-moving pulsars [PDF]

Journal of Plasma Physics, 2017
We review multiwavelength properties of pulsar wind nebulae created by supersonically moving pulsars and the effects of pulsar motion on the pulsar wind nebulae morphologies and the ambient medium. Supersonic pulsar wind nebulae are characterized by bow-shaped shocks around the pulsar and/or cometary tails filled with the shocked pulsar wind.

PULSAR WIND NEBULAE MODELING [PDF]

International Journal of Modern Physics: Conference Series, 2014
Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe) are ideal astrophysical laboratories where high energy relativistic phenomena can be investigated. They are close, well resolved in our observations, and the knowledge derived in their study has a strong impact in many other fields, from AGNs to GRBs.

TIME-DEPENDENT MODELING OF PULSAR WIND NEBULAE [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2013
A spatially independent model that calculates the time evolution of the electron spectrum in a spherically expanding pulsar wind nebula (PWN) is presented, allowing one to make broadband predictions for the PWN's non-thermal radiation. The source spectrum of electrons injected at the termination shock of the PWN is chosen to be a broken power law.
