TeV-selected PWNe and unidentified sources yield beaming fractions of 0.1-0.3 across radio, gamma-ray, and X-ray bands, with survey-to-survey differences explained by selection biases or older pulsars and reproducible via time-dependent opening angles.
Off-peak emission from the region of 4HWC J2029+3641 is point-like with a curved spectrum consistent with the outer-gap model of the nearby pulsar PSR J2030+3641 rather than an extended nebula.
The routine model with bulk viscosity best reproduces the Crab pulsar's magnetic inclination angle, spin period, and derivative, while electromagnetic torque and accretion suppress inclination growth and most other effects are negligible.

Constraining the Pulsar Beaming Fraction with TeV-Selected Galactic Pulsar Wind Nebulae and unidentified TeV Sources
TeV-selected PWNe and unidentified sources yield beaming fractions of 0.1-0.3 across radio, gamma-ray, and X-ray bands, with survey-to-survey differences explained by selection biases or older pulsars and reproducible via time-dependent opening angles.
