Scientific paper

Timing observations made over an 18-month period using the Parkes radiotelescope show that the pulsar PSR 1758 - 24 is young and is located at the extreme western edge of the compact nebula G5.27 - 0.90 which is associated with the supernova remnant G5.4 - 1.2. These results confirm the association of this pulsar with the supernova remnant. They also imply that the pulsar was born with such a high velocity that it has overtaken the supernova remnant shell and now lies outside the shell.
