G343.1-2.3 and PSR 1706-44

چکیده
The association of G343.1-2.3 and PSR 1706-44 has been controversial from its first proposal. In this paper we present new evidence from images made by with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), MRT and Mt. Pleasant. To cover the full extent of G343.1-2.3 with ATCA mosaicing was required, and we present the polarisation images from this experiment. The ATCA observations confirms the much larger extent of the SNR, which now encompasses the pulsar.

On the association of G 343 . 1 - 2 . 3 and PSR 1706 - 44
The observations of the supernova remnant G343.1-2.3 with the Mauritius Radio Telescope, the Australia Compact Array, and the Hobart Single dish are presented. With these more sensitive measurements the association with the pulsar PSR1706-44 becomes much more likely. The major points from the observations are presented. .

We report on the detection of PSR 1706-44 in two ROSAT-PSPC observations. The recorded source counts are unpulsed with a 2 pulsed fraction upper limit of 18%. Spectral analysis did not distinguish between black-body and power law models; however, we argue that the lack of pulsations and the similarity in the pulsar's spin parameters to those of the Vela pulsar favour a power law model dN=dE / E...

We report on Chandra ACIS imaging of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) of the young Vela-like PSR B1706−44, which shows the now common pattern of an equatorial wind and polar jets. The structure is particularly rich, showing a relativistically boosted termination shock, jets with strong confinement, a surrounding radio/X-ray PWN and evidence for a quasi-static ‘bubble nebula’. The structures trace t...

We present some arguments in support of the association of the pulsar PSR B 1706−44 with the supernova remnant G 343.1−2.3, based on the idea that these objects could be the result of a supernova explosion within a mushroom-like cavity (created by the supernova progenitor wind breaking out of the parent molecular cloud). We suggest that in addition to the known bright " half " of G 343.1−2.3 th...

The possible association of the supernova remnant (SNR) G 343.1−2.3 with the pulsar PSR B 1706−44 (superposed on the arclike " shell " of the SNR) has been questioned by some authors on the basis of an inconsistency between the implied and measured (scintillation) transverse velocities of the pulsar, the absence of any apparent interaction between the pulsar and the SNR's " shell " , and some o...
