Pulsar Wind Nebulae Created by Fast-Moving Pulsars

, 2017
We review multiwavelength properties of pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) created by supersonically moving pulsars and the effects of pulsar motion on the PWN morphologies and the ambient medium.

Multidimensional relativistic MHD simulations of Pulsar Wind Nebulae: dynamics and emission

, 2017
Pulsar Wind Nebulae, and the Crab nebula in particular, are the best cosmic laboratories to investigate the dynamics of magnetized relativistic outflows and particle acceleration up to PeV energies.

MHD Interaction of Pulsar Wind Nebulae with SNRs and the ISM

, 2005
In the late 1960s the discovery of the Crab pulsar in its associated supernova remnant, launched a new field in supernova remnant research: the study of pulsar-driven or plerionic supernova remnants.

A deep search for pulsar wind nebulae using pulsar gating [PDF]

, 1999
Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) we have imaged the fields around five promising pulsar candidates to search for radio pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe).

Theory of Pulsar Wind Nebulae

, 2007
Our understanding of Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe), has greatly improved in the last years thanks to unprecedented high resolution images taken from the HUBBLE, CHANDRA and XMM satellites.

First Detection of Polarization in X-Rays for PSR B0540-69 and Its Nebula

The Astrophysical Journal
We report on X-ray polarization measurements of the extragalactic Crab-like PSR B0540-69 and its Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) in the Large Magellanic Cloud, using a ∼850 ks Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) exposure. The PWN is unresolved by IXPE. No
