Descripción
Sumario:[Context] Pulsars represent one of the possible final stages in the evolution of massive stars. If a supernova explosion is anisotropic, it can give the pulsar a powerful "kick", propelling it to supersonic speeds. The resulting pulsar wind nebula is significantly reshaped by its interaction with the surrounding medium as the pulsar moves through it. First, the pulsar crosses the supernova remnant (SNR), followed by the different layers of circumstellar medium (CSM) formed during different stages of the progenitor star's evolution.
