The Infrared Detection of the Pulsar Wind Nebula in the Galactic Supernova Remnant 3C 58

The Infrared Detection of the Pulsar Wind Nebula in the Galactic Supernova Remnant 3C 58

We present infrared observations of 3C 58 with the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. Using the IRAC camera, we have imaged the entire source, which results in clear detections of the nebula at 3.6 and 4.5 μm. The derived flux values are consistent with extrapolation of the X-ray …
