Young Supernova Remnants in the Magellanic Clouds

arXiv:astro-ph/0102377 · doi:10.1063/1.1377130

Abstract

There are a half-dozen or so young supernova remnants in the Magellanic Clouds that display one or more of the following characteristics: high velocity (>1000 km/s) emission, enhanced metallicity, or a rapidly rotating pulsar. I summarize the current state of knowledge of these remnants and present some recent results mostly from the new X-ray astronomy satellites.
