Scientific paper

We propose to observe the X-ray counterpart to the TeV source HESS J1731-347 in imaging mode with Chandra. Based on our Suzaku observations of the TeV source, we believe that the object can be identified as a pulsar wind nebula driven by a pulsar with supersonic motion. Arcsecond X-ray imaging should reveal the geometry of this object, similar to what is observed with Chandra for the few other examples of this small but interesting class of X-ray pulsar wind nebulae.
