We have identified nine new SNR candidates in M74 with [S II]/H$\alpha$ $\geq$ 0.4 as the basic criterion. We obtain [S II]/H$\alpha$ ratio in the range from 0.40 to 0.91 and H$\alpha$ intensities from 2.8 $\times$ $10^{-15}$ erg cm$^{-2}$…
We report the discovery of up to 35 new supernova remnants (SNRs) from a 42 arcsec resolution 90cm multi-configuration Very Large Array survey of the Galactic plane covering 4.5 deg< l <22.0 deg and |b| < 1.25 deg. Archival 20cm, 11cm, and…
We report observations with the MIPS instrument aboard the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope} (SST) of four supernova remnants (SNRs) believed to be the result of core-collapse SNe: N132D (0525-69.6), N49B (0525-66.0), N23 (0506-68.0), and…
We present new X-ray and radio data of the LMC SNR candidate DEM L205, obtained by XMM-Newton and ATCA, along with archival optical and infrared observations. We use data at various wavelengths to study this object and its complex…
The Galactic supernova remnant W49B has one of the most impressive X-ray emission line spectra obtained with the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astronomy (ASCA). We use both plasma line diagnostics and broadband model fits to show…
We present the results of X-ray spectroscopy of a flux-limited sample of seven middle-aged supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) (N23, N49, N63A, DEM71, N132D, 0453-68.5, and N49B), using nonequilibrium ionization…
A galactic supernova remnant (SNR) Vela Jr. (RX J0852.0$-$4622, G266.6$-$1.2) shows sharp filamentary structure on the north-western edge of the remnant in the hard X-ray band. The filaments are so smooth and located on the most outer side…
We performed millimeter observations in CO lines toward the supernova remnant (SNR) HB 3. Substantial molecular gas around -45 km s^-1 is detected in the conjunction region between the SNR HB 3 and the nearby W3 complex. This molecular gas…
We present the discovery of a supernova remnant (SNR) in M31 which is unlike any other remnant known in that galaxy. An optical MMT spectrum of WB92-26 sampling most of this marginally resolved object reveals strong lines of [O II], [Ne…
The discovery of the youngest Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G1.9+0.3 has allowed a look at a stage of SNR evolution never before observed. We analyze the 50 ks Chandra observation with particular regard to spectral variations. The very…
We present radio-continuum observations of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) candidate, G308.3-1.4, made with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope and the Parkes radio telescope. Our results…
We present X-ray and radio observations of the new Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G306.3-0.9, recently discovered by Swift. Chandra imaging reveals a complex morphology, dominated by a bright shock. The X-ray spectrum is broadly…
We present infrared observations of the young, oxygen-rich supernova remnant 1E 0102.2-7219 (E0102) in the Small Magellanic Cloud, obtained with the Spitzer Space Telescope. The remnant is detected at 24 um but not at 8 or 70 um and has a…
Recent studies using 21 cm HI line and $^{13}$CO line observations in the inner part of the Galaxy have resulted in new distances for 30 Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs). 15 of those remnants have observed X-ray spectra, for which…
With a star formation rate of order 0.4 M$_\odot $ yr$^{-1}$, M31 should have significant population of supernova remnants (SNRs), and, in fact, 156 SNR and SNR candidates have been suggested by Lee et al. (2014) by searching for nebulae…
We have carried out 12CO (J=1-0 and 2-1), 13CO (J=1-0), and C18O (J=1-0) observations in the direction of the supernova remnant (SNR) G22.7-0.2. A filamentary molecular gas structure, which is likely part of a larger molecular complex with…
The high sensitivity of the XMM-Newton instrumentation offers the opportunity to study faint and extended sources in the Milky Way and nearby galaxies such as the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in detail. The ROSAT PSPC survey of the LMC has…
We report a Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer satellite observation of the supernova remnant N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, covering the 905 -- 1187 A spectral region. A 30'' square aperture was used, resulting in a velocity…
Many supernova remnants (SNRs) are considered to evolve in molecular environments, but the associations between SNRs and molecular clouds (MCs) are often unclear. Being aware of such ambiguous case, we report our study on the molecular…
We investigate the dust associated with the supernova remnant (SNR) N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) as observed with the Herschel Space Observatory. N49 is unusually bright because of an interaction with a molecular cloud along its…
