The Polarized Cosmic Hand: IXPE Observations of PSR B1509−58/MSH 15−52

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We describe IXPE polarization observations of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) MSH 15−5 ^2 , the “Cosmic Hand.” We find X-ray polarization across the PWN, with B -field vectors generally aligned with filamentary X-ray structures.

Evolved Pulsar Wind Nebulae

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
Based on the expected population of core collapse supernova remnants and the huge number of detected pulsars in the Galaxy, still representing only a fraction of the real population, pulsar wind nebulae are likely to constitute one of the largest classes of extended Galactic sources in many energy bands. For simple evolutionary reasons, the majority of

Discovery of an Extended γ-Ray Emission around the Supernova Remnant Candidate Associated with PSR J0837–2454

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Motivated by the recent discovery of a low-surface-brightness diffuse emission, a supernova remnant (SNR) candidate, surrounding the young pulsar PSR J0837–2454, we carry out a likelihood analysis of the γ -ray data obtained by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space ...

The braking index of PSR B0540−69 and the associated pulsar wind nebula emission after spin-down rate transition [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
In 2011 December, PSR B054−69 experienced a spin-down rate transition (SRT), after which the spin-down power of the pulsar increased by $\sim 36{{\ \rm per\ cent}}$. About 1000 d after the SRT, the X-ray luminosity of the associated pulsar wind nebula (

THE THEORY OF PULSAR WIND NEBULAE [PDF]

open access: yesInternational 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.

Interaction of a magnetized pulsar wind with its surroundings. MHD simulations of Pulsar Wind Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesAstron.Astrophys. 404 (2003) 939-948, 2003
Magnetohydrodynamical simulations are presented of a magnetized pulsar wind interacting directly with the interstellar medium, or, in the case of a surrounding supernova remnant, with the associated freely expanding ejecta of the progenitor star. In both cases the simulations show that the pulsar wind nebula will be elongated due to the dynamical ...

PULSAR WIND NEBULAE MODELING [PDF]

open access: yesInternational 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.
