Abstract
Recent observations of the microwave sky, by the space telescopes such as WMAP and Planck, have opened a new window into the analysis of continuum emission from supernova remnants (SNRs). In this paper, different emission models that can explain the characteristic shape of presently known integrated radio/microwave continuum spectrum of the Galactic SNR IC 443 are tested and discussed. In particular, the possibility that the slight bump in the integrated continuum of this remnant around 20 -- 70~GHz is genuine and that can be explained by the contribution of additional emission mechanism such as of spinning dust is emphasized. We find that adding a spinning dust component to the emission model improves the fit of the integrated spectrum of this SNR while, at the same time preserves the physically probable parameter values. Finally, models that include the high-frequency synchrotron bending of the IC 443 radio to microwave continuum are favored.
