GALACTIC AND EXTRAGALACTIC SUPERNOVA REMNANTS AS SITES OF PARTICLE ACCELERATION [PDF]

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2013
Supernova remnants, owing to their strong shock waves, are likely sources of Galactic cosmic rays. Studies of supernova remnants in X-rays and gamma rays provide us with new insights into the acceleration of particles to high energies. This paper reviews

Gamma-ray emission from young supernova remnants: Hadronic or leptonic?

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
The debate on the nature of the gamma-ray emission from young supernova remnants is still open. Ascribing such emission to hadronic rather than leptonic processes would provide an evidence for the acceleration of protons and nuclei, and this fact would ...

Pre-acceleration in the Electron Foreshock. II. Oblique Whistler Waves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Thermal electrons have gyroradii many orders of magnitude smaller than the finite width of a shock, thus need to be pre-accelerated before they can cross it and be accelerated by diffusive shock acceleration.

Arp 299-A: More than "just" a prolific supernova factory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present partial results from our monitoring of the nuclear region of the starburst galaxy IC 694 (=Arp 299-A) at radio wavelengths, aimed at discovering recently exploded core-collapse supernovae, as well as to determine their rate of explosion, which

Radio Emission from Supernova Remnants: Model Comparison with Observations

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are an integral part in studying the properties of the Galaxy and its interstellar medium. For the current work, we compare the observed radio luminosities of SNRs to predictions based on a recent analytic model applied to 54 ...

Are Supernovae Responsible for the Gamma Ray Spectrum from the Galactic Center?

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
We discuss the supernova remnants distribution as a function of the galactic longitude and compare their positions to that of the detected TeV gamma ray sources. A large fraction of these sources either coincide or a close by known supernova remnants. If

Numerical code for fitting radial emission profile of a shell supernova remnant: Application [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2011
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

A Statistical Analysis of Galactic Radio Supernova Remnants

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We present a revised table of 390 Galactic radio supernova remnants (SNRs) and their basic parameters. Statistical analyses are performed on SNR diameters, ages, spectral indices, Galactic heights, and spherical symmetries.

EMU Detection of a Large and Low Surface Brightness Galactic SNR G288.8–6.3

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present the serendipitous detection of a new Galactic supernova remnant (SNR), G288.8–6.3, using data from the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) Evolutionary Map of the Universe (EMU) survey.
