X-ray observations of the young pulsar wind nebula G21.5–0.9 and the evolved pulsar wind nebulae CTB 87 (G74.9+1.2) and G63.7+1.1
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe), nebulae harbouring a rotation-powered neutron star that was born in a supernova, provide opportunities to study highly relativistic pulsar winds and their interaction with the surrounding medium. Particularly interesting are PWNe that do not show any sign of the expected...
