Extended gamma-ray emission from particle escape in pulsar wind nebulae. Application to HESS J1809-193 and HESS J1825-137 [PDF]
There is growing evidence from gamma-ray observations at high and very high energies that particle escape is a key aspect shaping the morphological properties of pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) at various evolutionary stages.

High-resolution Radio Study of the Dragonfly Pulsar Wind Nebula Powered by PSR J2021+3651
The Dragonfly Nebula (G75.2+0.1) powered by the young pulsar J2021+3651 is a rare pulsar wind nebula (PWN) that shows double tori and polar jets enclosed by a bow-shock structure in X-rays.

TRAPUM search for pulsars in supernova remnants and pulsar wind nebulae − I. Survey description and initial discoveries [PDF]
We present the description and initial results of the TRAPUM (TRAnsients And PUlsars with MeerKAT) search for pulsars associated with supernova remnants (SNRs), pulsar wind nebulae and unidentified TeV emission.

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

Pulsar-wind nebulae and magnetar outflows: observations at radio, X-ray, and gamma-ray wavelengths [PDF]
We review observations of several classes of neutron-star-powered outflows: pulsar-wind nebulae (PWNe) inside shell supernova remnants (SNRs), PWNe interacting directly with interstellar medium (ISM), and magnetar-powered outflows.

A self-regulated stochastic acceleration model of pulsar wind nebulae [PDF]
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are clouds of the magnetized relativistic electron/positron plasma supplied from the central pulsar. However, the number of radio-emitting particles inside a PWN is larger than the expectation from the study of pulsar ...

The power-law component of the X-ray emissions from pulsar-wind nebulae and their pulsars [PDF]
To look for possible phenomenological connections between pulsar timing properties and emissions from pulsar-wind nebulae and their pulsars, we studied the power-law component of the X-ray emissions from 35 pulsar-wind nebulae that have a detected ...

The Evolution and Structure of Pulsar Wind Nebulae [PDF]
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
