Geminga's puzzling pulsar wind nebula
B. Posselt, G. G. Pavlov, P. O. Slane +6
We report on six new Chandra observations of the Geminga pulsar wind nebula (PWN). The PWN consists of three distinct elongated structures - two pc long later…
Deep Chandra Observations of the Pulsar Wind Nebula Created by PSR B0355+54
Noel Klingler, Blagoy Rangelov, Oleg Kargaltsev +10
We report on Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) observations of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) associated with PSR B0355+54 (eight observations with a 395 ks total exposure, performed o…
Radio Polarization Observations of the Snail: A Crushed Pulsar Wind Nebula in G327.1-1.1 with a Highly Ordered Magnetic Field
Y. K. Ma, C. -Y. Ng, N. Bucciantini +3
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are suggested to be acceleration sites of cosmic rays in the Galaxy. While the magnetic field plays an important role in the acceleration process, previo…
The Refined Shock Velocity of the X-Ray Filaments in the RCW 86 Northeast Rim
Hiroya Yamaguchi, Satoru Katsuda, Daniel Castro +5
A precise measurement of shock velocities is crucial for constraining the mechanism and efficiency of cosmic-ray (CR) acceleration at supernova remnant (SNR) shock fronts. The nort…
