We present a radio-continuum survey of the LMC using the MeerKAT telescope, describe the full-Stokes products included in the first data release, and highlight some initial results. The observations are centred at 1.3 GHz with a bandwidth…

We present new radio continuum images and a source catalogue from the MeerKAT survey in the direction of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The observations, at a central frequency of 1.3 GHz across a bandwidth of 0.8 GHz, encompass a field…

The supernova remnant (SNR) G315.4$-$2.3 (MSH 14$-$63 or RCW 86) exhibits strong emission across the electromagnetic spectrum. Radio polarization observations probe magnetic fields and will help to understand the evolution of the SNR. We…

Supernova remnants are the nebular leftover of defunct stellar environments, resulting from the interaction between a supernova blastwave and the circumstellar medium shaped by the progenitor throughout its life. They display a large…

G315.4-2.3 is an extended shell supernova remnant (SNR) with some characteristics of evolutionarily young remnants and some of older ones. To further elucidate some of its characteristics, we present imaging and polarimetry of this SNR at a…

Mixed-morphology supernova remnants (MM SNRs) are a mysterious class of objects that display thermal X-ray emission within their radio shell. They are an older class of SNRs, and as such are profoundly affected by the environment into which…

Context. Sensitive radio continuum data could remove the difference between the number of known supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Galaxy compared to that expected, but due to confusion in the Galactic plane, faint SNRs can be challenging to…

The supernova remnant (SNR) G25.1-2.3 was identified in the radio band during the Sino-German $\lambda$6 cm survey of the Galactic plane. We present a detailed investigation of the optical, HI, and CO emission towards the G25.1-2.3 to…

We present a new multi-wavelength study of supernova remnant (SNR) B0513-692 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The remnant also has a strong, superposed, essentially unresolved, but unrelated radio source at its north-western edge,…

Results from the 327-MHz Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT) observations of four fields - three fields containing Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) (G001.4-0.1, G003.8+0.3, and G356.3-1.5) and one field containing a candidate SNR…
