Population synthesis of Galactic middle-aged pulsar wind nebulae I. Detection prospects for current and future instruments
A. De Sarkar, D. F. Torres, B. Olmi +2
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) constitute the largest population of Galactic very-high-energy (VHE; GeV) -ray sources and are key laboratories for studying particle accele…
Old pulsar wind nebulae and the role of the thermal filaments
N. Bucciantini, Y. Batini, B. Olmi
Old pulsar wind nebulae are among the foremost galactic high-energy gamma-ray sources. However we still lack a robust approach to their modeling, especially in the light of forthco…
Population synthesis of Galactic middle-aged pulsar wind nebulae II. Observational signatures of superefficiency
D. F. Torres, A. De Sarkar, B. Olmi +2
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) interacting with the host supernova remnants (SNRs) can enter the reverberation phase in which reverse-shock-driven compression amplifies the magnetic fi…
Radio streaks in the Lighthouse Nebula discovered with MeerKAT -- Particles escaping from the tail and illuminating the ambient magnetic field
Pierrick Martin, Mickael Coriat, Barbara Olmi +4
Bow-shock pulsar wind nebulae are valuable sources to investigate the dynamics of relativistic pulsar winds and the mechanisms by which they are converted into cosmic-ray leptons a…
Measuring the initial mass of 44Ti in SN 1987A through the 44Sc emission line
Roberta Giuffrida, Marco Miceli, Emanuele Greco +7
Context. Deriving the mass and large-scale asymmetries of radioactive isotopes offers valuable insights into the complex phases of a supernova explosion. Important examples are $^{…
The nature of the X-ray filaments around bow shock pulsar wind nebulae
Barbara Olmi, Elena Amato, Rino Bandiera +1
Context. We propose that the X-ray filaments emerging from selected bow shock pulsar wind nebulae are due to a charge-separated outflow of electrons and/or positrons escaping the n…
