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 in supernova remnants [PDF]

, 2001
A spherically symmetric model is presented for the interaction of a pulsar wind with the associated supernova remnant. This results in a pulsar wind nebula whose evolution is coupled to the evolution of the surrounding supernova remnant.

The Galactic Population of Pulsar Wind Nebulae and the Contribution of Its Unresolved Component to the Diffuse High-Energy Gamma-ray Emission

Universe, 2023
In this work, we provide a phenomenological description of the population of galactic TeV pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) based on suitable assumptions for their space and luminosity distribution.

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.

Pulsar Wind Nebulae in Egret Error Boxes [PDF]

Astrophysics and Space Science, 2005
A remarkable number of pulsar wind nebulae (PWN) are coincident with EGRET gamma-ray sources. X-ray and radio imaging studies of unidentified EGRET sources have resulted in the discovery of at least 6 new pulsar wind nebulae (PWN). Stationary PWN (SPWN) appear to be associated with steady EGRET sources with hard spectra, typical for gamma-ray pulsars ...

Polarization in the inner region of pulsar wind nebulae [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2005
We present here the first effort to compute synthetic synchrotron polarization maps of Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe). Our goal is to highlight how polarization can be used as an additional diagnostic tool for the flow structure in the inner regions of these nebulae.

X-RAY EVOLUTION OF PULSAR WIND NEBULAE [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2010
During the search for counterparts of very-high-energy gamma-ray sources, we serendipitously discovered large, extended, low surface brightness emission from PWNe around pulsars with the ages up to ~100 kyrs, a discovery made possible by the low and stable background of the Suzaku X-ray satellite.
