X-ray Observations of Young Supernova Remnants
This brief review of recent X-ray observations of young supernova remnants highlights results obtained by the Chandra and XMM Newton Observatories since their launch last year. Their impressive capabilities are illustrated by results for spectral imaging, and for spatially resolved spectroscopy that isolates emission from individual ejecta knots and from the forward shock. I also review X-ray d...
متن کاملRadio Observations of Supernova Remnants
Supernovae release an enormous amount of energy into the interstellar medium. Their remnants can observationally be traced up to several ten-thousand years. So far more than 230 Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) have been identified in the radio range. Detailed studies of the different types of SNRs give insight into the interaction of the blast wave with the interstellar medium. Shock acceler...
متن کاملKinematics of Supernova Remnants: Status of X-Ray Observations
A supernova (SN) explosion drives stellar debris into the circumstellar material (CSM) filling a region on a scale of parsecs with X-ray emitting plasma. The velocities involved in supernova remnants (SNRs), thousands of km s−1, can be directly measured with medium and high-resolution X-ray spectrometers and add an important dimension to our understanding of the last stages of the progenitor, t...
متن کاملA Review of X-ray Observations of Supernova Remnants
Although radio and optical observations have played an important role in identifying and characterizing supernova remnants (SNRs), most of the shock heated material is primarily visible in X-rays, having temperatures of typically 10 − 10 K. The emission mechanisms are bremsstrahlung and line radiation, but a number of remnants are now known to emit Xray synchrotron radiation from ultra-relativi...
متن کاملMultifrequency Studies of Bright Radio Supernova Remnants . Iii . X - Ray and Radio Observations of 3 C 397
Radio-bright, presumably young supernova remnants offer the opportunity of studying strong-shock physics and the nature of the interaction of ejected material with the surrounding medium. The relation between radio and X-ray morphology varies considerably among supernova remnants , with important implications for the physics of the emission processes at different wavelengths. We use Very Large ...
