The Expansion Asymmetry and Age of the Cassiopeia A Supernova Remnant

R. A. Fesen, M. C. Hammell, J. Morse +7

HST ACS images of the young SN remnant Cas A are used to explore the expansion and spatial distribution of its highest velocity debris. Proper motions of over 1800 outlying ejecta…

Dust Destruction in Type Ia Supernova Remnants in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Kazimierz J. Borkowski, Brian J. Williams, Stephen P. Reynolds +9

We present first results from an extensive survey of Magellanic Clouds supernova remnants (SNRs) with the Spitzer Space Telescope. We describe IRAC and MIPS imaging observations at…

The Nature of Ultra Luminous X-ray Sources

C. M. Gutierrez, M. Lopez-Corredoira

We present spectroscopic observations of six optical counterparts of intermediate luminosity X-ray sources (ULXs) around nearby galaxies. The spectra of the six objects show the pr…

Simultaneous ASCA and HST/GHRS observations of Cygnus X-2/V1341 Cygni

S. D. Vrtilek, J. C. Raymond, B. Boroson +4

We present results from ultraviolet and X-ray observations of the low mass X-ray binary Cygnus X-2. The simultaneous HST/GHRS and ASCA observations took place during the low state…

HST-STIS Observations of the Cygnus Loop: Spatial Structure of a Non-radiative Shock

Ravi Sankrit, W. P. Blair, J. C. Raymond +1

We present a spatially-resolved ultraviolet spectrum of a non-radiative shock front in the Cygnus Loop, obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on board the H…

Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Observations of the Supernova Remnant N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud

William P. Blair, Ravi Sankrit, Robin Shelton +9

We report a Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer satellite observation of the supernova remnant N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, covering the 905 -- 1187 A spectral region. A 3…
