Pulsar Wind Nebulae in the Chandra Era

TL;DR: The shape and the spectrum of a pulsar wind nebula (PWN) depend on the angular distribution, magnetization and energy spectrum of the wind streaming from the pulsar magnetosphere, as well as on the pulsars velocity and the properties of the ambient medium as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Variable Jet of the Vela Pulsar

TL;DR: In this article, Chandra X-ray observations of the Vela pulsar-wind nebula have revealed a complex, variable PWN structure, including inner and outer arcs, a jet in the direction of the pulsar's proper motion, and a counter-jet in the opposite direction, embedded in diffuse nebular emission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variability of the Vela Pulsar Wind Nebula Observed with Chandra

TL;DR: In this article, Chandra X-ray observations of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) around the Vela pulsar with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) were taken on 2000 April 30 and November 30, revealing its complex morphology reminiscent of that of the Crab PWN.

Ultraviolet Emission from the Millisecond Pulsar J0437?4715*

TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed PSR J0437-4715 with the FUV-MAMA detector of the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrometer (STIS) to measure the pulsar's spectrum and pulsations.
