متن کاملChandra Studies of Nonthermal Emission from Supernova Remnants and Pulsar Wind Nebulae
While supernova remnants (SNRs) have long been considered prime candidates as sources of cosmic rays, it is only recently that X-ray observations have identified several shell-type SNRs dominated by nonthermal emission, thus revealing shock-accelerated electrons with energies extending far beyond the typical thermal spectrum. Two of these SNRs have been detected as sources of VHE γ-rays. In oth...
متن کاملHigh Energy Studies of Pulsar Wind Nebulae
The extended nebulae formed as pulsar winds expand into their surroundings provide information about the composition of the winds, the injection history from the host pulsar, and the material into which the nebulae are expanding. Observations from across the electromagnetic spectrum provide constraints on the evolution of the nebulae, the density and composition of the surrounding ejecta, the g...
متن کاملRecent Observations of EGRET Pulsar Wind Nebulae
We present recent X-ray and radio observations of pulsar wind nebulae discovered in EGRET error boxes. Two XMM-Newton observations show the X-ray extent of the rapidly moving PWN associated with the variable γ-ray source 3EG J1809−2328, and a trail coming from the new millisecond pulsar PSR J1614−2230 at high Galactic z. We also briefly discuss three PWN that are HESS TeV sources including a ne...
متن کاملHESS Observations of Pulsar Wind Nebulae
The high resolution capabilities of the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) introduced a new era in Gamma-Ray Astronomy, and opens a new window on pulsar wind nebula (PWN) research. A rotationally induced jet (associated with PSR B1509-58) is resolved for the first time in γ-rays, allowing us to trace the particle transport directly, without having the complicating effect of spatially varyin...
