We suggest a revised distance to the supernova remnant (SNR) G109.1-1.0 (CTB 109) and its associated anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 1E 2259+586 by analyzing 21cm HI-line and 12CO-line spectra of CTB 109, HII region Sh 152, and the adjacent…

We have imaged a 1 deg^2 field centered on the known Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G11.2-0.3 at 74, 330, and 1465 MHz with the Very Large Array radio telescope (VLA) and 235 MHz with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). The 235,…

The results of an optical search for supernova remnants (SNRs) in the nearby irregular galaxy NGC 2366 are presented. We took interference filter images and collected spectral data in three epochs with the f/7.7 1.5 m Russian Turkish…

Deep optical emission-line images are presented for nine known plus three new Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs), all but one having at least one angular dimension greater than one degree. Wide-field images taken in H$\alpha$ and [O III]…

It might be thought that supernova remnants (SNRs) more distant than a few kiloparsec from Earth could not have been detected by the EGRET experiment. This work analyzes the observational status of this statement in the light of new CO…

We have observed the supernova remnant (SNR) G290.1-0.8 in the 21-cm HI line and the 20-cm radio continuum using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The HI data were combined with data from the Southern Galactic Plane Survey to…
