X-ray line emission from supernova ejecta fragments
We show that fast moving isolated fragments of a supernova ejecta composed of heavy elements should be sources of Kα X-ray line emission of the SN nuclear-processed products. Supersonic motion of the knots in the intercloud medium will result in a bow-shock/knot-shock structure creation. Fast nonthermal particles accelerated by Fermi mechanism in the MHD collisionless shocks diffuse through a c...
متن کاملThe X-ray Line Emission from the Supernova Remnant W49b
The Galactic supernova remnant W49B has one of the most impressive X-ray emission line spectra obtained with the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astronomy (ASCA). We use both plasma line diagnostics and broadband model fits to show that the Si and S emission lines require multiple spectral components. The spectral data do not necessarily require individual elements to be spatially stratifi...
متن کاملX-ray synchrotron emission from supernova remnants
X-ray synchrotron emission tells us of the highest energy reached by accelerated electrons. In a few supernova remnants (SN 1006, G347.3−0.5) this is the dominant form of X-ray radiation, but in most it is superposed to the dominant thermal emission. Thanks to the spectro-imaging capability of Chandra and XMM-Newton, X-ray synchrotron emission has now been unambiguously detected in most young s...
متن کاملThe X-ray Iron Emission from Tycho’s Supernova Remnant
We present the results of broadband spectral model fits to the X-ray spectrum of Tycho’s supernova remnant obtained by the Solid-State Imaging Spectrometers on the ASCA Observatory. We use single-temperature, single-ionization-age, nonequilibrium ionization models to characterize the ejecta and the blast-shocked interstellar medium. Previous spectral studies have suggested that the Fe ejecta in...
متن کاملThermal X-ray Emission from Shocked Ejecta in Type Ia Supernova Remnants. Prospects for Explosion Mechanism Identification
The explosion mechanism behind Type Ia supernovae is a matter of continuing debate. The diverse attempts to identify or at least constrain the physical processes involved in the explosion have been only partially successful so far. In this paper we propose to use the thermal X-ray emission from young supernova remnants originated in Type Ia events to extract relevant information concerning the ...
