The X‐Ray Structure and Spectrum of the Pulsar Wind Nebula Surrounding PSR B1853+01 in W44

We present the result of a Chandra ACIS observation of the pulsar PSR B1853+01 and its associated pulsar wind nebula (PWN), embedded within the supernova remnant W44. A hard band ACIS map cleanly distinguishes the PWN from the thermal emission of W44. The nebula is extended in the north-south direction, …
