In this paper we use recent X-ray and radio observations of the ejecta-rich Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G337.2-0.7 to determine properties of the supernova (SN) explosion that formed this source. H I absorption measurements from the…

We report re-analyses of the Suzaku observations of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR), G272.2$-$3.2, for which the previous studies were limited below 3 keV. With careful data reduction and background subtraction, we discover the K-shell…
