We present our observations of the radio emission from supernova (SN) 1993J, in M 81 (NGC 3031), made with the VLA, from 90 to 0.7 cm, as well as numerous measurements from other telescopes. The combined data set constitutes probably the…

We present an XMM-Newton detection of two low radio surface brightness SNRs, G85.4+0.7 and G85.9-0.6, discovered with the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS). High-resolution XMM-Newton images revealing the morphology of the diffuse…
