Pulsar wind nebula in the constellation Leo
VT 1137-0337 is a extragalactic pulsar wind nebula (possibly a magnetar nebula) that is located 395 million light years away from planet earth in the dwarf galaxy named SDSS J113706.18-033737.1, a galaxy going through a burst of star formation. It was created through the supernova of a massive star just 14-80 years ago.
Formation.
VT 1137-0337 was formed 14 to 80 years ago when a massive star went supernova leaving behind a supernova remnant and a young pulsar type fast spinning neutron star.
Neutron star.
The neutron star left at the center of VT 1137-0337 is fast spinning pulsar type neutron star that has a strong magnetic field creating charged particles travelling at the speed of light in the surrounding space creating a strong radio emission.
Discovery.
The nebula VT 1137-0337 was spotted by using the Very Large Array Sky Survey (also called VLASS).
