An unresolved X - ray source inside the supernova remnant RCW 86
We report on the discovery of an unresolved X-ray source inside the supernova remnant G315.4-2.3 (RCW 86). The source is located 7 to the Southwest of the geometrical centre and may be close to the actual explosion centre of the supernova, which makes this a candidate for the stellar remnant associated with RCW 86. However, the presence of a possible optical counterpart with V ∼ 14 at 3 from th...
متن کاملPulsar Near the Supernova Remnant RCW 103
Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT We report the detection of the radio pulsar counterpart to the 69 ms X-ray pulsar discovered near the supernova remnant RCW 103 (G332.4−0.4). Our detection confirms that the pulsations arise from a rotation-powered neutron star, which we name PSR J1617−5055. The observed barycentric period derivative confirms that the pulsar has a characteristic age of only 8 ...
متن کاملPoint X - ray sources in the SNR G 315 . 4 − 2 . 30 ( MSH 14 − 6 3 , RCW 86 )
We report the results of a search for a point X-ray source (stellar remnant) in the southwest protrusion of the supernova remnant G 315.4−2.30 (MSH 14−63, RCW 86) using the archival data of the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The search was motivated by a hypothesis that G 315.4−2.30 is the result of an off-centered cavity supernova explosion of a moving massive star, which ended its evolution just ...
متن کاملThe X–ray Sources at the Center of the Supernova Remnant RX J0852.0−4622
Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT We present a BeppoSAX observation of the X–ray source AX J0851.9−4617.4 that has been proposed as the neutron star associated to the shell like-supernova remnant RX J0852.0−4622. The image at E>5 keV shows the presence of a new source, SAX J0852.0−4615 , not resolved from AX J0851.9−4617.4 in previous observations. The improved positional accuracy obtained for...
متن کاملExploring the X-ray emission properties of the supernova remnant G67.7+1.8 and its central X-ray sources
We have studied the supernova remnant G67.7+1.8 with the Chandra X-ray observatory. The remnant’s X-ray morphology correlates well with the double-arc structure seen at radio wavelength. The X-ray spectra of the northern and southern rim of G67.7+1.8 exhibit emission line features of highly ionized metals, which suggests that most of the observed Xrays originate in a thermal plasma. We find mag...
