RX-J0852−4622: THE NEAREST HISTORICAL SUPERNOVA REMNANT – AGAIN
RX-J0852−4622, a supernova remnant, is demonstrated to be closer than 500 pc, based on the measurements of the angular radius, the angular expansion rate and the TeV g-ray flux.

The Large Magellanic Cloud Supernova Remnant MCSNR J0550-6823
We describe radio, optical, and X-ray observations of this rather faint, old Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) supernova remnant. The [O iii ] emission forms a distinct shell, the remnant of the outer shock, which encloses the radio and X-ray emission and ...

Abstract.In this review I will concentrate on older remnants, by which I mean those in which radiative cooling is important somewhere and the swept up mass is sufficiently large for the details of the initial explosion not to matter. For such remnants it is the optical emission which is crucial since it allows us to deduce a great deal about the ...

The supernova remnant SN 1006 as a Galactic particle accelerator
It is known that cosmic rays could be accelerated by shock waves in supernova (SN) remnants. Here, the authors show that SN 1006 remnant is an efficient source of cosmic rays, providing observational support for the quasi-parallel acceleration mechanism.

Progenitors of Recombining Supernova Remnants [PDF]
Usual supernova remnants have either ionizing plasma or plasma in collisional ionization equilibrium, i.e., the ionization temperature is lower than or equal to the electron temperature. However, the existence of recombining supernova remnants, i.e., supernova remnants with the ionization temperature higher than the electron temperature, is recently ...

Numerical code for fitting radial emission profile of a shell supernova remnant: Application [PDF]
We present IDL (Interactive Data Language) codes for fitting a theoretical emission profile of a shell supernova remnant (SNR) to the mean profile of an SNR obtained from radio observations. Two considered theoretical models are: 1) a shell with

Radiative Supernova Remnants and Supernova Feedback [PDF]
Abstract Supernova (SN) explosions are a major feedback mechanism, regulating star formation in galaxies through their momentum input. We review the observations of SNRs in radiative stages in the Milky Way, to validate theoretical results regarding the momentum/energy injection from a single SN explosion.

Examining Neutrino–Matter Interactions in the Cassiopeia A Supernova
Neutrino interactions with stellar material are widely believed to be fundamental to the explosion of massive stars. However, this important process has remained difficult to confirm observationally.
