Supernova Remnants (SNRs) exhibit spectra featured by synchrotron radio emission arising from the relativistic electrons, and high-energy emission from both leptonic (Bremsstrahlung and Inverse Compton) and hadronic processes (${\pi}^0$…

We present high-quality VLA images of the FR I radio galaxy 3C 31 in the frequency range 1365 to 8440 MHz with angular resolutions from 0.25 to 40 arcsec. Our new images reveal complex, well resolved filamentary substructure in the radio…

We discuss the X-ray emission observed from Supernova Remnant 1987A with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. We analyze a high resolution spectrum obtained in 1999 October with the high energy transmission grating (HETG). From this spectrum we…

We compare a deep (37 ks) Chandra ACIS-S image of the M31 bulge to Local Group Survey narrow-band optical data and Very Large Array (VLA) radio data of the same region. Our precisely registered images reveal two new optical shells with…

We present wide-field Halpha images of the Galactic supernova remnant G156.2+5.7 which reveal the presence of considerable faint Halpha line emission coincident with the remnant's X-ray emission. The outermost Halpha emission consists…

Typically, integrated radio frequency continuum spectra of supernova remnants (SNRs) exhibit a power-law form due to their synchrotron emission. In numerous cases, these spectra show an exponential turnover, long assumed due to thermal…
