Optical observations of PSR J2021+3651 in the Dragonfly Nebula with the GTC
Aida Kirichenko, Andrey Danilenko, Peter Shternin +7
PSR J2021+3651 is a 17 kyr old rotation powered pulsar detected in the radio, X-rays, and -rays. It powers a torus-like pulsar wind nebula with jets, dubbed the Dragonfly, whic…
XMM-Newton observations of a gamma-ray pulsar J0633+0632: pulsations, cooling and large-scale emission
Andrey Danilenko, Anna Karpova, Dmitry Ofengeim +2
We report results of XMM-Newton observations of a -ray pulsar J0633+0632 and its wind nebula. We reveal, for the first time, pulsations of the pulsar X-ray emission with a sing…
Deep optical observations of unusual neutron star Calvera with the GTC
Yury Shibanov, Andrey Danilenko, Sergey Zharikov +2
Calvera is an unusual isolated neutron star with pure thermal X-ray spectrum typical for central compact objects in supernova remnants. On the other hand, its rotation period and s…
Optical observations of PSR J1357-6429 field
Aida Kirichenko, Andrey Danilenko, Ronald E. Mennickent +4
PSR J1357-6429 is a Vela-like radio pulsar that has been recently detected with Chandra and Fermi, which, like Vela, powers a compact X-ray pulsar wind nebula and X-ray-radio pleri…
The Vela pulsar and its likely counter-jet in the K_s band
Dima Zyuzin, Yury Shibanov, Andrey Danilenko +2
We report the first high spatial resolution near-infrared imaging of the Vela pulsar in the band obtained with the new adaptive optics system recently mounted on the Gemini-S…
Deep optical observations of the gamma-ray pulsar J0357+3205
Aida Kirichenko, Andrey Danilenko, Yury Shibanov +3
A middle-aged radio-quiet pulsar J0357+3205 was discovered in gamma-rays with and later in X-rays with and - observatories. It produces an unusual th…
