Time-dependent modeling of TeV-detected, young pulsar wind nebulae
Torres, D. F.; de Oña Wilhelmi, E.; Cillis, A. +1 more
The increasing sensitivity of instruments at X-ray and TeV energies has revealed a large number of nebulae associated with bright pulsars. Despite this large data set, the observed pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) do not show a uniform behavior and the main parameters driving features like luminosity, magnetization, and others are still not fully unders…
Searching for small-scale diffuse emission around SGR 1806-20
Tiengo, A.; Mereghetti, S.; Stella, L. +6 more
Diffuse radio emission was detected around the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1806-20 after its 2004 powerful giant flare. We study the possible extended X-ray emission at small scales around SGR 1806-20, in two observations by the High Resolution Camera Spectrometer (HRC-S) on board of the Chandra X-ray Observatory: in 2005, 115 days after the giant…
