From Pulsar Spin to Pulsar Wind: The Spectral Connection?
We present preliminary results from a systematic spectral study of pulsars and their wind nebulae using the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. The superb spatial resolution of Chandra allows us to differentiate the compact object’s spectrum from that of its surrounding nebulae. Specifically, for six Crab-like pulsars, we compare spectral fits of the averaged pulsar wind nebulae (PWN) emission to that o...
متن کاملThe Expansion and Radio Spectral Index of G21.5–0.9: Is PSR J1833−1034 the Youngest Pulsar?
We report on new 5-GHz VLA radio observations of the pulsar-powered supernova remnant G21.5−0.9. These observations have allowed us to make a high-quality radio image of this remnant with a resolution of ∼0.7. It has a filamentary structure similar to that seen in the Crab Nebula. Radio structure suggestive of the torus seen around the Crab pulsar is tentatively identified. We also compared the...
متن کاملThe Spectral Index Distribution of Egret Blazars: Prospects for Glast
The intrinsic distribution of spectral indices in GeV energies of gamma-ray–loud blazars is a critical input in determining the spectral shape of the unresolved blazar contribution to the diffuse extragalactic gamma-ray background, as well as an important test of blazar emission theories. We present a maximum-likelihood method of determining the intrinsic spectral index distribution (ISID) of a...
متن کاملThe Pulsar Kick Velocity Distribution
We analyse the sample of pulsar proper motions, taking detailed account of the selection effects of the original surveys. We treat censored data using survival statistics. From a comparison of our results with Monte Carlo simulations, we find that the mean birth speed of a pulsar is ∼ 250 − 300 km s, rather than the 450 km s found by Lyne & Lorimer (1994). The resultant distribution is consiste...
متن کاملSpectral Sequence of Universal Distribution and Sinnott’s Index Formula
Abstract. We prove an abstract index formula about Sinnott’s symbol between two different lattices. We also develop the theory of the universal distribution and predistribution in a double complex point of view. The theory of spectral sequence is used to interpret the index formula and to analyze the cohomology of the universal distribution. Combing these results, we successfully prove Sinnott’...
