Understanding Pulsar Wind Nebulae with the SKA
Joseph D. Gelfand, C. -Y. Ng, B. Posselt +9
Produced by the interaction between the ``pulsar wind'' powered by the rotational energy of a neutron star and its surroundings, the study of pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) provides vi…
Pulsar Population Synthesis with Magnetorotational Evolution: Constraining the Decay of Magnetic field
Zhihong Shi, C. -Y. Ng
We present a population synthesis model for normal radio pulsars in the Galaxy incorporating the latest developments in the field and the magnetorotational evolution processes. Our…
Magnetic-field Order in the Southwestern Rim of RCW 86 Constrained Using X-Ray Polarimetry
Stefano Silvestri, Dmitry Prokhorov, Jacco Vink +97
RCW 86 is a supernova remnant whose origin has recently been linked to an off-center explosion within a cavity created by its progenitor star. In the southwestern region, the forwa…
Polarization of reflected X-ray emission from the Sgr A molecular complex: multiple flares, multiple sources?
Ildar Khabibullin, Eugene Churazov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +100
The extended X-ray emission observed in the direction of several molecular clouds in the central molecular zone of our Galaxy exhibits spectral and temporal properties consistent w…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
