The VELA pulsar : member of an association ?

William C. Straka

Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

Brandt, Stecher, Crawford, and Maran suggest that the pulsar in Vela, PSR 0833-45 may be associated with y Vel and other stars. Several further pieces of evidence are considered. While highly suggestive, this evidence is not conclusive, both confirming and contradicting the existence of a B association in this region. Assumption of the existence of the association suggests that the object giving rise to the pulsar may have been larger than 15 . Subject headings: associations - pulsars
