Scientific paper

Observations of PSR B1823-13 with the ROSAT PSPC and HRI are reported. With a period of ~ 101 ms and dot {P} of ~ 75times 10(-15) ss(-1) , PSR B1823-13 has a spindown age of ~ 21,000 yrs. These spin parameters yield a spindown energy loss rate, {dot E}, of ~ 10(36) erg s(-1) . There is no known radio band supernova remnant (SNR) associated with PSR B1823-13 which calls into question either the lifetimes of SNR or the origin of this neutron star. We will address the possibility that PSR B1823-13 is imbedded in a compact nebula as observed in the Vela pulsar with the high spatial resolution HRI data. Results of a spectral analysis of the PSPC data are presented and the implications with regard to the thermal evolution of young neutron stars will be discussed.
