The Cocoon from a Massive Star's Death: VLA Radio Polarization Study of Possible Historical Supernova Remnant G7.73.7

Tian-Xian Luo, Ping Zhou, C. -Y. Ng +3

G7.73.7 is a possible historical SNR, with the origin of its cocoon-like morphology and its supernova type remaining unclear. We performed L-band radio polarization observations…

Diffuse X-ray Emission in the Sagittarius C Complex

Zhenlin Zhu, Mark R. Morris, Gabriele Ponti +1

The Sagittarius C (Sgr C) complex, located on the western edge of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ), hosts a mixture of star-forming and non-thermal activity whose X-ray properties…

Magnetic-field Order in the Southwestern Rim of RCW 86 Constrained Using X-Ray Polarimetry

Stefano Silvestri, Dmitry Prokhorov, Jacco Vink +97

RCW 86 is a supernova remnant whose origin has recently been linked to an off-center explosion within a cavity created by its progenitor star. In the southwestern region, the forwa…

X-ray polarization in SN 1006 southwest shows spatial variations and differences with the radio band

Ping Zhou, Patrick Slane, Dmitry Prokhorov +15

We report the detection of a spatial variation of X-ray polarization in the southwestern shell of SN 1006 (SN 1006 SW) using IXPE. The shell has an average X-ray polarization degre…

Evidence for a shock-compressed magnetic field in the northwestern rim of Vela Jr. from X-ray polarimetry

Dmitry A. Prokhorov, Yi-Jung Yang, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +97

Synchrotron X-ray emission has been detected from nearly a dozen young supernova remnants (SNRs). X-rays of synchrotron origin exhibit linear polarization in a regular, non-randoml…

Probing Magnetic Fields in Young Supernova Remnants with IXPE

Patrick Slane, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Ping Zhou +1

Synchrotron emission from the shocked regions in supernova remnants provides, through its polarization, crucial details about the magnetic field strength and orientation in these r…

Discovery of a shock-compressed magnetic field in the north-western rim of the young supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with X-ray polarimetry

Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Dmitry Prokhorov, Niccolò Bucciantini +99

Supernova remnants (SNRs) provide insights into cosmic-ray acceleration and magnetic field dynamics at shock fronts. Recent X-ray polarimetric measurements by the Imaging X-ray Pol…

Typing supernova remnant G352.70.1 using XMM-Newton X-ray observations

Ling-Xiao Dang, Ping Zhou, Lei Sun +4

G352.70.1 is a mixed-morphology (MM) supernova remnant (SNR) with multiple radio arcs and has a disputed supernova origin. We conducted a spatially resolved spectroscopic study…

Two shell- and wing-shaped supernova remnants. Investigating the molecular environments around VRO 42.05.01 and G 350.0-2.0

Maria Arias, Ping Zhou, Alexandros Chiotellis +6

Supernova remnants (SNRs) are profoundly affected by their ambient medium. We present carbon monoxide (CO) observations around two mixed morphology SNRs, VRO 42.05.01 and G 350.0-2…

Detection of metal enrichment by SN 2011jm in NGC 4809

Yulong Gao, Qiusheng Gu, Ping Zhou +2

The cosmic metals are believed to originate from stellar and supernovae (SNe) nucleosynthesis, dispersed into the interstellar medium (ISM) through stellar winds and supernova expl…

Magnetic structures and turbulence in SN 1006 revealed with imaging X-ray polarimetry

Ping Zhou, Dmitry Prokhorov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +99

Young supernova remnants (SNRs) strongly modify surrounding magnetic fields, which in turn play an essential role in accelerating cosmic rays (CRs). X-ray polarization measurements…

Detection of optical emission from the supernova remnant G7.7-3.7

V. Domček, J. V. Hernández Santisteban, A. Chiotellis +6

We present the first optical study of the supernova remnant (SNR) G7.7-3.7, with the aim of determining its evolutionary phase since it has been suggested to be the remnant of SN 3…

A low-frequency view of mixed-morphology supernova remnant VRO 42.05.01, and its neighbourhood

M. Arias, J. Vink, M. Iacobelli +7

Mixed-morphology supernova remnants (MM SNRs) are a mysterious class of objects that display thermal X-ray emission within their radio shell. They are an older class of SNRs, and a…
