How Supernova Remnant (SNR) shocks impact nearby molecular clouds is still poorly observationally constrained. It is unclear if SNRs can positively or negatively affect clouds star formation potential. We have studied the dense gas…

We present the second in a series of results in which we have searched for undiscovered neutron stars in supernova remnants (SNRs). This paper deals with the largest six SNRs in our sample, too large for Chandra or XMM-Newton to cover in a…

Aims. We report the first detailed X-ray study of the supernova remnant (SNR) G304.6+0.1, achieved with the XMM-Newton mission. Methods. The powerful imaging capability of XMM-Newton was used to study the X-ray characteristics of the…

We present new radio images of the supernova remnant (SNR) CTA 1 at 1420 and 408 MHz, and in the 21 cm line of H I observed with the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory Synthesis Telescope and at 1420 MHz observed with the Effelsberg…

We report the discovery of a confirmed supernova (SN) and a supernova-candidate in near-infrared images from the ALTAIR/NIRI adaptive optics system on the Gemini-North Telescope and NICMOS on the Hubble Space Telescope. The Gemini images…

We present new images of the low radio surface brightness Supernova Remnant (SNR) G126.2+1.6, based on the 408 MHz and 1420 MHz continuum emission and the HI-line emission data of the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS). {\bf We find the…

MUSE-based emission-line maps of the spiral galaxy NGC 4030 reveal the existence of unresolved sources with forbidden line emission enhanced with respect to those seen in its own HII regions. This study reports our efforts to detect and…

Supernova remnants (SNRs) are considered as being the sources of galactic cosmic rays. In order to understand the origin, acceleration, and composition of these cosmic rays, detailed knowledge of the physical conditions in the local…

M33 contains a large number of emission nebulae identified as supernova remnants (SNRs) based on the high [S II]:Ha ratios characteristic of shocked gas. Using Chandra data from the ChASeM33 survey with a 0.35-2 keV sensitivity of about 2 x…

We present high-resolution radio images at 1.4 GHz of two Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs), G003.8--00.3 (formerly G003.7--00.2) and G350.0--02.0 (formerly G350.0-01.8). Although the two objects are very different in appearance, in both…
