We present a BeppoSAX observation of the X-ray source AX J0851.9-4617.4 that has been proposed as the neutron star associated to the shell like-supernova remnant RX J0852.0-4622. The image at E>5 keV shows the presence of a new source, SAX…
We have identified nine new SNR candidates in M74 with [S II]/H$\alpha$ $\geq$ 0.4 as the basic criterion. We obtain [S II]/H$\alpha$ ratio in the range from 0.40 to 0.91 and H$\alpha$ intensities from 2.8 $\times$ $10^{-15}$ erg cm$^{-2}$…
We model SNRs at a variety of heights above the disk. Our detailed numerical simulations include non-equilibrium ionization and recombination and follow the remnants' evolution until their hot bubbles have cooled. We analytically calculate…
We report the discovery of high-energy $\gamma$-ray emission in the vicinity of G213.0-0.6, which is debated as a supernova remnant (SNR) or an ionized hydrogen (H$_{\rm{II}}$) region. Using 16-yr Pass 8 data from Fermi Large Area Telescope…
Diffusive shock acceleration in supernova remnants (SNRs) is considered one of the prime mechanisms for Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) acceleration. It is still unclear, however, whether SNRs can contribute to GCR spectrum up to the ``knee''…
The recent discovery of the radio shell-type supernova remnant (SNR), G353.6-0.7, in spatial coincidence with the unidentified TeV source HESS J1731-347 has motivated further observations of the source with the High Energy Stereoscopic…
The gamma-ray pulsar PSR B1706-44 and the adjacent supernova remnant (SNR) candidate G343.1-2.3 were observed by H.E.S.S. during a dedicated observation campaign in 2007. As a result of this observation campaign, a new source of…
We present far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectral-imaging observations of the Vela supernova remnant (SNR), obtained with the Spectroscopy of Plasma Evolution from Astrophysical Radiation (SPEAR) instrument, also known as FIMS. The Vela SNR extends…
Supernova Remnants (SNRs) are believed to be the main source of Galactic cosmic rays (CR). The strong SNR shocks provide ideal acceleration sites for particles of at least 10^14 eV/nucleon. Radio continuum studies of SNRs carried out with…
We present the discovery of non-thermal radio and X-ray emission positionally coincident with the TeV $\gamma$-ray source HESS J1813--178. We demonstrate that the non-thermal radio emission is due to a young shell-type supernova remnant…
The supernova remnant (SNR) RX J1713.7$-$3946 is one of the best-studied accelerators of cosmic rays because of its strong nonthermal X-ray and gamma-ray radiation. We have analyzed accumulated \chandra\ observations with a total exposure…
The supernova remnant (SNR) G150.3+4.5 was recently discovered in the radio band; it exhibits a shell-like morphology with an angular size of $\sim 3^{\circ}$, suggesting either an old or a nearby SNR. Extended $\gamma$-ray emission…
Supernova remnants (SNRs) have emerged as one of the largest source classes in very-high-energy (VHE; E>0.1,TeV) astronomy. Many of the now known VHE gamma-ray emitting SNRs have been discovered by the H.E.S.S. imaging Cherenkov telescope…
Candidate supernova remnants G23.5+0.1 and G25.5+0.0 were observed by XMM-Newton in the course of a snap-shot survey of plerionic and composite SNRs in the Galactic plane. In the field of G23.5+0.1, we detected an extended source, ~3' in…
As part of a systematic search programme of a 10-degree wide strip of the Northern Galactic plane we present preliminary evidence for the discovery of four (and possibly five) new supernova remnants (SNRs). The pilot search area covered the…
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are widely considered the most likely source of cosmic rays below the knee ($10^{15}$ eV). Studies of GeV and TeV gamma-ray emission in the vicinity of SNRs, in combination with multi-wavelength observations, can…

The supernova remnant (SNR) candidate G 116.6-26.1 is one of the few high Galactic latitude ($|b| > 15^o$) remnants detected so far in several wavebands. It was discovered recently in the SRG/eROSITA all-sky X-ray survey and displays also a…
Very-high-energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) gamma radiation has already been detected from several supernova remnants (SNRs). These objects, which are well-studied in radio, optical and X-ray wavelengths, constitute one of the most intriguing…
We review the observations of supernova remnants (SNRs) and pulsar-wind nebulae (PWNe) that give information on the strength and orientation of magnetic fields. Radio polarimetry gives the degree of order of magnetic fields, and the…
