Pulsars steadily dissipate their rotational energy via relativistic winds. Confinement of these
outflows generates luminous pulsar wind nebulae, seen across the electromagnetic …

Pulsars with high spin-down power produce relativistic winds radiating a non-negligible
fraction of this power over the whole electromagnetic range from radio to gamma-rays in the …

Pulsar winds shocked in the ambient medium produce spectacular nebulae observable from
the radio through γ‐rays. The shape and the spectrum of a pulsar wind nebula (PWN) …

In this paper, we give a detailed account of the first three-dimensional (3D) relativistic
magnetohydrodynamic simulations of pulsar wind nebulae, with parameters most suitable …

Pulsar systems accelerate particles to immense energies. The detailed functioning of these
engines is still poorly understood, but polarization measurements of high-energy radiation …

Abstract Chandra X-Ray Observatory imaging has shown that equatorial tori, often with polar
jets, are very common in young pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). These structures are …

The structure and the evolution of Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe) are studied by means of
two-dimensional axisymmetric relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (RMHD) simulations. After …

In this paper, we give a detailed description of the first attempt to study the properties of the
flow produced by a magnetized pulsar wind within a plerionic nebula via fully relativistic …

The Vela pulsar is the brightest persistent source in the GeV sky and thus is the traditional
first target for new γ-ray observatories. We report here on initial Fermi Large Area Telescope …

Pulsar wind nebulae (PWN) are fascinating systems and archetypal sources for high-energy
astrophysics in general. Due to their vicinity, brightness, to the fact that they shine at multi …
