Scientific paper

The Crab Nebula is a well-known source of synchrotron radiation over the whole electromagnetic spectrum. The authors conclude that both the mean colour change observed around the edges of the nebula, and the NW-sector asymmetry, can be explained on the basis of established synchrotron theory. Higher-quality mapping observations at 0.58, 1.2 and 2.2 microns could lead to a more detailed model of the synchrotron-emitting region; a spectroscopic check for line-emission contamination of the J and K signals would be a necessary preliminary.
