THE THEORY OF PULSAR WIND NEBULAE [PDF]

International Journal of Modern Physics: Conference Series, 2014
I will review the current status of our theoretical understanding of Pulsar Winds and associated nebulae (PWNe). In recent years, axisymmetric models of pulsar winds with a latitude dependent energy flux have proved very successful at explaining the morphology of PWNe as seen in the X-rays.

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.

The Evolution and Structure of Pulsar Wind Nebulae [PDF]

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2006
Pulsars steadily dissipate their rotational energy via relativistic winds. Confinement of these outflows generates luminous pulsar wind nebulae, seen across the electromagnetic spectrum in synchrotron and inverse Compton emission and in optical emission lines when they shock the surrounding medium. These sources act as important probes of relativistic

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:

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.

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 ...
