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…
