Annotation Slane and Gaensler (both of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics) present the proceedings of an August 2001 workshop devoted to young neutron stars and their associated supernova remnants, organized in light of observational advances since a similarly themed conference in 1998. Ninety-seven papers are organized into seven sections covering rotation-powered pulsars in supernova remnants, pulsar wind theory, evolution of pulsar nebulae, observations of pulsar nebulae, exotic neutron stars and their supernova remnants, isolated and binary neutron stars, and supernovae and supernova remnants.
