Implications of the synchrotron emission in plerionic nebulae: a second component in the Crab Nebula
Rino Bandiera
High-quality spatially resolved spectra of synchrotron emission from plerions represent a powerful diagnostic tool for the physical conditions in these objects. A fundamental quest…
Properties of the Non-Thermal Emission in Plerions
Rino Bandiera
The synchrotron emission observed in plerions depends on the characteristics of the magnetic fields and relativistic electrons in these supernova remnants. Therefore an analysis of…
A model for the spatial distribution of relativistic electrons in the Crab Nebula
E. Amato, M. Salvati, R. Bandiera +2
We extend Pacini & Salvati's model for the synchrotron emission from plerions to allow more realistic predictions of the surface brightness profiles of the Crab Nebula at radio, op…
Modelling Non-Axisymmetric Bow Shocks
Rino Bandiera
I present an extension of the thin layer approximation to non-axisymmetric bow shocks. By choosing a suitable set of curvilinear coordinates that matches the geometry of a generall…
