Scientific paper

We have carried out an HI survey towards X-ray central compact objects (CCOs) inside supernova remnants (SNRs) which shows that many of them are placed within local HI minima. The nature of these minima is not clear, but the most likely explanation is that the CCOs have evacuated the neighboring gas. This survey also allowed us to detect a weak, diffuse radio nebula inside the SNR Vela Jr, probably created by the winds of its associated CCO.
