چکیده
We report the ASCA results of the super-nova remnants (SNRs) and their candidates in the Galac-tic Center region. We found apparent X-ray emission from G359.1−0.5 and G0.9+0.1, and made marginal detection for G359.1+0.9, but found no significant X-ray from the other cataloged SNRs: G359. The emission from G359.1−0.5 is found to be thermal with multi temperature structures whereas that from G0.9+0.1 is quite hard, probably non-thermal. We discovered two new candidates of SNRs: G0.0−1.3 (AX J1751−29.6) and G0.56−0.01 (AX J1747.0−2828). The former, G0.0−1.3, shows the extended emission with a thin thermal plasma. The latter, G0.56−0.01, shows quite strong 6.7-keV line with the equivalent width of 2 keV, which resembles that of the Galactic Center plasma. We discuss the nature of those SNRs, relating with the origin of the Galactic Center hot plasma.

We present here the results of the mapping observation of the Cygnus Loop with the Gas Imaging Spectrometer (GIS) onboard the ASCA observatory. The data covered the entire region of the Cygnus Loop. Spatial resolution of the GIS is moderate whereas the energy resolving power is much better than those used in the previous observations. The ASCA soft-band image shows the well-known shell-like fea...

RXTE/ASM observations of PSR B1259−63 near the 1997 periastron passage find no emission brighter than ∼10 times that detected by ASCA during the 1994 periastron encounter, demonstrating that the pulsar is unlikely to have undergone even brief episodes of accretion.

The launch of the Beppo-Sax satellite gave a unique opportunity to investigate gamma ray bursts (GRB) in different spectral regions. The large diversity of the afterglow behavior creates additional problems for the cosmological model with a fireball. Formation of the afterglow giving the observed diversity of properties is suggested in the Galactic neutron star model of GRBs. It is based on the...

We report the discovery of a new filamentary structure, G358.85+0.47, consisting of at least three mutually parallel but bent 'strands', located about 1.5 • SW of the Sgr A complex. Unlike all the other known Galactic center filaments, G358.85+0.47 is oriented parallel to the galactic plane. Based on its appearance in a 20 cm image, we give it the name 'the Pelican' for further reference.
