Measuring the cosmic ray acceleration efficiency of a supernova remnant
E. A. Helder, J. Vink, C. G. Bassa +7
Cosmic rays are the most energetic particles arriving at earth. Although most of them are thought to be accelerated by supernova remnants, the details of the acceleration process a…
Ejecta, Dust, and Synchrotron Radiation in B0540-69.3: A More Crab-Like Remnant than the Crab
Brian J. Williams, Kazimierz J. Borkowski, Stephen P. Reynolds +10
We present near and mid-infrared observations of the pulsar-wind nebula (PWN) B0540-69.3 and its associated supernova remnant made with the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope}. We report…
The Chandra ACIS Survey of M33 (ChASeM33): Investigating the Hot Ionized Medium in NGC604
R. Tuellmann, T. J. Gaetz, P. P. Plucinsky +7
NGC604 is the largest HII-region in M33, second only within the Local Group to 30 Dor, and is important as a laboratory for understanding how massive young stellar clusters interac…
The Heating of Thermal Electrons in Fast Collisionless Shocks: The Integral Role of Cosmic Rays
Cara E. Rakowski, J. Martin Laming, Parviz Ghavamian
Understanding the heating of electrons to quasi-thermal energies at collisionless shocks has broad implications for plasma astrophysics. It directly impacts the interpretation of X…
A Half-Megasecond Chandra Observation of the Oxygen-Rich Supernova Remnant G292.0+1.8
Sangwook Park, John P. Hughes, Patrick O. Slane +3
We report on our initial analysis of a deep 510 ks observation of the Galactic oxygen-rich supernova remnant (SNR) G292.0+1.8 with the {\it Chandra X-ray Observatory}. Our new {\it…
Chandra ACIS Survey of M33 (ChASeM33): A First Look
Paul P. Plucinsky, Benjamin Williams, Knox S. Long +22
We present an overview of the Chandra ACIS Survey of M33 (ChASeM33): A Deep Survey of the Nearest Face-on Spiral Galaxy. The 1.4 Ms survey covers the galaxy out to $R \approx 18\ar…
