X-Ray Spins and Radio Speeds: Probing Pulsar Birth Kinematics with CXO and the VLBA

It is now well known that the symmetry axes of the Crab and Vela pulsar wind nebulae (red) lie rather close to their proper motion vectors (green). X-Ray Spins and Radio Speeds: Probing Pulsar Birth Kinematics with CXO and the VLBA. Is this Coincidence? Is this Physics ?

  1. It is now well known that the symmetry axes of the Crab and Vela pulsar wind nebulae (red) lie rather close to their proper motion vectors (green) X-Ray Spins and Radio Speeds:Probing Pulsar Birth Kinematics with CXO and the VLBA Is this Coincidence? Is this Physics? If you are curious, take a look at our poster, summarizing some of our efforts to measure the spins and speeds of additional (fainter, of course) examples for a new kinematic test of conditions at core collapse.
