چکیده

New images of the Supernova Remnants (SNRs) G114.3+0.3, G116.5+1.1 and G116.9+0.2 (CTB 1) are presented at 408MHz from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS). We also use the 1420 MHz images from the CGPS to study their 408-1420 MHz spectral indices. The flux densities at 408 MHz and 1420 MHz, corrected for flux densities from compact sources within the SNRs, are 12±6 Jy and 9.8±0.8 Jy for G114.3+0.3, 15.0±1.5 Jy and 10.6±0.6 Jy for G116.5+1.1, 15.0±1.5 Jy and 8.1±0.4 Jy for G116.9+0.2. The integrated flux density-based spectral indices (Sν∝ν ) are α=0.16±0.41, 0.28±0.09 and 0.49±0.09 for G114.3+0.3, G116.5+1.1 and G116.9+0.2, respectively. Their T-T plot-based spectral indexes are 0.68±0.48, 0.28±0.15, and 0.48±0.04, in agreement with the integrated flux density-based spectral indices. New flux densities are derived at 2695 MHz which are significantly larger than previous values. The new 408, 1420 and 2695 MHz flux densities and published values at other frequencies, where images are not available, are fitted after correcting for contributions from compact sources, to derive their multi-frequency spectral indices.

X-Ray Emission from Supernova Remnants Observed in the ASCA Galactic Plane Survey

X-ray images and spectra of 5 cataloged supernova remnants (SNRs), G12.0−0.1, G346.6−0.2, G348.5+0.1, G348.7+0.3, and G355.6−0.0, observed in the ASCA galactic plane survey are presented. The sizes of X-ray emission from G12.0−0.1, G348.5+0.1, G348.7+0.3, and G355.6−0.0 are comparable to their radio structures, while that of G346.6−0.2 is smaller than the radio structure. The X-ray spectra of a...

GMRT observations of four suspected supernova remnants near the Galactic Centre

We have observed two fields Field I (l=3.2◦, b=−1.0◦) and Field II (l=356.8◦, b=−0.1◦) with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) at 330 MHz. In the first field, we have studied the candidate supernova remnant (SNR) G3.1−0.6 and based on its observed morphology, spectral index and polarisation confirmed it to be an SNR. We find this supernova to have a double ring appearance with a strip o...

Particle Acceleration in Pulsar Wind Nebulae

Plerionic supernova remnants exhibit radio emission with remarkably flat spectral indices ranging from α = 0.0 to α = −0.3. The origin of very hard particle energy distributions still awaits an explanation, since shock waves generate particle distributions with synchrotron spectra characterized by α ≤ −0.5. Acceleration of high energy leptons in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence instead may be res...

Effect of nearby supernova remnants on local Cosmic-Rays

We study in detail the effect of different particle release times from sources on the cosmic-ray (CR) spectrum below 10eV in the Galaxy. We discuss different possible forms of particle injection such as burst-like injection, continuous injection for a finite time, injection from a stationary source and energy dependent injection. When applied to the nearby known supernova remnants, we find that...
