摘要：

The formation of the toroidal and jet-like structures in the central part of the Crab Nebula is explained in the framework of Kennel & Coroniti theory. The only new element introduced by us in this theory is the initial anisotropy of the energy flux in the wind. We estimate the X-ray surface brightness of the Crab Nebula from the region of interaction of this wind with the interstellar medium and compare it with observations.
