Time-Dependent Electron Acceleration in Pulsar Wind Termination Shocks: Application to the 2007 September Crab Nebula Gamma-Ray Flare

John J. Kroon, Peter A. Becker, Justin D. Finke

In 2007 September, the Crab Nebula exhibited a bright gamma-ray flare in the GeV energy range that was detected by AGILE. The observed emission at >160 MeV indicates that the radia…
