Jets from Radio Pulsars

Astrophysics 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

The observational evidence for jets and phenomena arising from rotation powered radio pulsars is reviewed, including many recent and exciting discoveries at X-ray wavelengths. The well studied jets of the Crab pulsar are summarised, including recent results from the HST. The evolutionary links between the known binary radio pulsars and jets sources in X-ray binaries are discussed.
