Late-time radio observations of SN 2012au show re-brightening best explained by emission from a newborn pulsar wind nebula rather than continued shock interaction with circumstellar material.
This paper derives quantitative correction factors for traditional SSA minimum energy estimates to account for inhomogeneity and non-spherical geometry in emitting regions.
Middle-aged PWNe exhibit diverse reverberation-phase evolution but converge to Sedov-like states; 2D instabilities increase apparent size by up to 50% without changing global dynamics, supporting 1D model robustness.

Modelling the Dynamics of Middle-Aged Pulsar Wind Nebulae in the Reverberation Phase
Middle-aged PWNe exhibit diverse reverberation-phase evolution but converge to Sedov-like states; 2D instabilities increase apparent size by up to 50% without changing global dynamics, supporting 1D model robustness.
