Evolution of pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) could be expected to leave imprints in $\gamma$-rays. We suggest that intriguing GeV-TeV spectral energy distribution (SED) of HESS J1809$-$193 and Fermi-LAT source J1810.3$-$1925e is very likely to…
We study four young Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe) detected in TeV gamma-rays, G21.5-0.9, G54.1+0.3, Kes 75, and G0.9+0.1, using the spectral evolution model developed and applied to the Crab Nebula in our previous work. We model the evolution…
Recent observations of a few young pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) have revealed their morphologies in some detail. Given the availability of spatio-spectral-temporal data, we use our multi-zone (1D) leptonic emission code to model the PWNe…

In this review paper on pulsar wind nebulae (PWN) we discuss the properties of such nebulae within the context of containment against cross-field diffusion (versus normal advection), the effect of reverse shocks on the evolution of offset…
We observed the young pulsar J1357--6429 with the {\it Chandra} and {\it XMM-Newton} observatories. The pulsar spectrum fits well a combination of absorbed power-law model ($\Gamma=1.7\pm0.6$) and blackbody model ($kT=140^{+60}_{-40}$ eV,…
HESS J1809-193 is an extended TeV $\gamma$-ray source and the origin of its $\gamma$-ray emission remains ambiguous. Pulsar wind nebula (PWN) of PSR J1809-1917 laying inside the extended $\gamma$-ray emission is a possible candidate.…
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are clouds of the magnetized relativistic electron/positron plasma supplied from the central pulsar. However, the number of radio-emitting particles inside a PWN is larger than the expectation from the study of…
We model the morphology and spectrum of a pulsar wind nebula using a leptonic emission code. This code is a time-dependent, multi-zone model that investigates the changes in the particle spectrum as they traverse the nebula. We calculate…
In a Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN), the lifetime of inverse Compton emitting electrons exceeds the lifetime of its progenitor pulsar, but it exceeds also the age of the electrons that emit via synchrotron radiation; i.e. while the PWN grows…
