The effects of spin-down on the structure and evolution of pulsar wind nebulae

The effects of spin-down on the structure and evolution of pulsar wind nebulae

We present high resolution spherically symmetric relativistic magnetohydrodynamical simulations of the evolution of a pulsar wind nebula inside the freely expanding ejecta of the supernova progenitor. The evolution is followed starting from a few years after the supernova explosion and up to an age of the remnant of 1500 years. …
