On the origin of variable gamma-ray emission from the Crab nebula
On the origin of variable gamma-ray emission from the Crab nebula
The oblique geometry of pulsar wind termination shock ensures that the Doppler beaming has a strong impact on the shock emission. We illustrate this using recent relativistic MHD simulations of the Crab Nebula and also show that the observed size, shape, and distance from the pulsar of the Crab Nebula …
