Description
The results of simultaneous imaging of the Crab Nebula in the radio (JVLA),
optical (HST ACS and WFC3), and X-ray (Chandra) bands are presented.
The images show a variety of small-scale emitting structures, including wisps
mainly located to the north-west of the pulsar and knots forming a ring-like structure
usually associated with the termination shock of the pulsar wind.
