Abstract

We propose to observe three millisecond radio pulsars to search for X-ray-bright "tails" or other nebulosity arising from the interaction of the pulsar winds with the ambient medium. Our proposed observation, while doubling the number of MSPs observed with Chandra, will provide new insights into the nature of winds from recycled neutron stars, the energetics and magnetic structure of MSP magnetospheres, and their role in sculpting the interstellar medium.
