Identification of a Jet-Driven Supernova Remnant in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Possible Evidence for the Enhancement of Bipolar Explosions at Low Metallicity
Laura A. Lopez, Daniel Castro, Patrick O. Slane +2
Recent evidence has suggested that the supernova remnant (SNR) 0104-72.3 in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) may be the result of a prompt Type Ia SN based on enhanced iron abundan…
A Chandra View Of Nonthermal Emission In The Northwestern Region Of Supernova Remnant RCW 86: Particle Acceleration And Magnetic Fields
Daniel Castro, Laura A. Lopez, Patrick O. Slane +3
The shocks of supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to accelerate particles to cosmic ray (CR) energies. The amplification of the magnetic field due to CRs propagating in the shoc…
Unraveling the Origin of Overionized Plasma in the Galactic Supernova Remnant W49B
Laura A. Lopez, Sarah Pearson, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +4
Recent observations have shown several supernova remnants (SNRs) have overionized plasmas, those where ions are stripped of more electrons than they would be if in equilibrium with…
Fermi LAT Observations of Supernova Remnants Interacting with Molecular Clouds: W41, MSH 17-39, and G337.0-0.1
Daniel Castro, Patrick Slane, Ashley Carlton +1
We report the detection of gamma-ray emission coincident with three supernova remnants (SNRs) using data from the Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope.…
High-Energy Emission from the Composite Supernova Remnant MSH 15-56
Tea Temim, Patrick Slane, Daniel Castro +3
MSH 15-56 (G326.3-1.8) is a composite supernova remnant (SNR) that consists of an SNR shell and a displaced pulsar wind nebula (PWN) in the radio. We present XMM-Newton and Chandra…
The Galactic Supernova Remnant W49B Likely Originates from a Jet-Driven, Core-Collapse Explosion
Laura A. Lopez, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, Daniel Castro +1
We present results from a 220-ks observation of the galactic supernova remnant (SNR) W49B using the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on board the Chanrda X-ray Observatory.…
