Abstract:

The nature of Vela X, the radio-bright central region of the Vela SNR, has remained a mystery for three decades. Particulary puzzling is the brightest filament of Vela X. It has an apparent X-ray counterpart which was thought to be the jet of the Vela pulsar energizing the Vela X complex. This seemingly straightforward interpretation has been ruled out by the Chandra discovery of the true pulsar jets. To elucidate the nature of the filament and the Vela X complex and their connection to the Vela pulsar, we propose spatially-resolved spectroscopy of the radio/X-ray filament with XIS. Simultaneously, we will measure the spectra of the Vela pulsar and PWN between 10 and 600 keV and perform phase-resolved spectroscopy of the pulsar in the 20-50 keV band.
