The Complex Wind Torus and Jets of PSR B1706-44 [PDF]

, 2005
We report on Chandra ACIS imaging of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) of the young Vela-like PSR B1706-44, which shows the now common pattern of an equatorial wind and polar jets.

X-ray Emission from the Guitar Nebula [PDF]

, 1997
We have detected weak soft X-ray emission from the Pulsar Wind Nebula trailing the high velocity star PSR 2224+65 (the `Guitar Nebula'). This X-ray flux gives evidence of \gamma~10^7 eV particles in the pulsar wind and constrains the properties of the ...

Fermi-LAT Search for Pulsar Wind Nebulae around gamma-ray Pulsars

, 2010
The high sensitivity of the Fermi-LAT (Large Area Telescope) offers the first opportunity to study faint and extended GeV sources such as pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). After one year of observation the LAT detected and identified three pulsar wind nebulae:

Pulsar Wind Nebulae and Their Supernovae [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004
Young supernova remnants that contain pulsar wind nebulae provide diagnostics for both the inner part of the supernova and the interaction with the surrounding medium, providing an opportunity to relate these objects to supernova types. Among observed young nebulae, there is evidence for a range of supernova types, including Type IIP (Crab Nebula and ...

Impact of Cosmic‐Ray Physics on Dark Matter Indirect Searches

Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
The quest for the elusive dark matter (DM) that permeates the Universe (and in general the search for signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model at astronomical scales) provides a unique opportunity and a tough challenge to the high energy astrophysics community.

Pulsar Wind Nebulae [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1996
AbstractI discuss pulsar wind nebulae for which ram pressure from the neutron star’s motion is a key element of the morphology. These PWN are tools for determining the pulsar distance, radial velocity component, and interaction of pulsar winds with surrounding media. The Guitar Nebula pulsar (B2224+65) also represents a ‘smoking gun’ for velocity kicks

The effects of spin-down on the structure and evolution of pulsar wind nebulae [PDF]

, 2004
We present high resolution spherically symmetric relativistic magnetohydrodynamical simulations of the evolution of a pulsar wind nebula inside the free expanding ejecta of the supernova progenitor.

The Observer’s Guide to the Gamma‐Ray Burst Supernova Connection

Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
We present a detailed report of the connection between long‐duration gamma‐ray bursts (GRBs) and their accompanying supernovae (SNe). The discussion presented here places emphasis on how observations, and the modelling of observations, have constrained what we know about GRB‐SNe.

Diverse Features of the Multiwavelength Afterglows of Gamma‐Ray Bursts: Natural or Special?

Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
The detection of optical rebrightenings and X‐ray plateaus in the afterglows of gamma‐ray bursts (GRBs) challenges the generic external shock model. Recently, we have developed a numerical method to calculate the dynamics of the system consisting of a forward shock and a reverse shock.
