G326.3$-$1.8 (also known as MSH 15$-$56) has been detected in radio as a middle-aged composite supernova remnant (SNR) consisting of an SNR shell and a pulsar wind nebula (PWN), which has been crushed by the SNR's reverse shock. Previous…
The shock fronts of supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to be significant sites of acceleration of cosmic ray particles. Previous researchers have shown that a particle distribution similar to a log-parabola can be generated when…
At the early, ejecta dominated, stage of supernova remnant (SNR) expansion a fraction of the swept-up circumstellar magnetic field is dynamically compressed to approximate equipartition at the contact discontinuity separating the SN…

(Abridged) We have investigated two evolutionary scenarios advanced to explain the centrally-brightened X-ray morphology of the supernova remnant (SNR) W44: (1) a model involving the slow thermal evaporation of clouds engulfed by a…
If cosmic rays with energies <100 TeV originate in the galaxy and are accelerated in shock waves in shell-type supernova remnants (SNRs), gamma-rays will be produced as the result of proton and electron interactions with the local…

We present the first dedicated X-ray study of the supernova remnant (SNR) G32.8-0.1 (Kes 78) with Suzaku. X-ray emission from the whole SNR shell has been detected for the first time. The X-ray morphology is well correlated with the…

Neutrinos emitted during stellar core collapse up to their trapping phase carry information about the stage from which the Supernova explosion process initiates. The dominant $\nu_e$ emission mechanism is by electron capture on free protons…

The supernova remnant (SNR) RX J0852-4622 (Vela Jr., G266.6-1.2) is one of the most important SNRs for investigating the acceleration of multi-TeV particles and the origin of Galactic cosmic rays because of its strong synchrotron X-ray and…
We study high-energy emission from the mergers of neutron star binaries as electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational waves aside from short gamma-ray bursts. The mergers entail significant mass ejection, which interacts with the…
