To date, over 220 emission nebulae in M33 have been identified as supernova remnants (SNRs) or SNR candidates, principally through [SII]:Halpha line ratios that are elevated compared to those in H II regions. In many cases, the…
Aims. We introduce the SISSI (Supernovae In a Stratified, Shearing Interstellar medium) simulation suite, which aims to enable a more comprehensive understanding of supernova remnants (SNRs) evolving in a complex interstellar medium (ISM)…
The availability of a number of new interferometric measurements of Main Sequence and subgiant stars makes it possible to calibrate the surface brightness relations of these stars using exclusively direct angular diameter measurements.…
We present ASCA observations of supernova remnant (SNR) G349.7+0.2. The remnant has an irregular shell morphology and is interacting with a molecular cloud, evident from the presence of OH(1720 MHz) masers and shocked molecular gas. The…
We present a radio analysis of the recently identified supernova remnant G321.3-3.9 using archival multi-wavelength data spanning 88-2304 MHz. The source exhibits an elliptical shell-like morphology (1.3 deg x 1.7 deg) and a relatively flat…
Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) with angular dimensions greater than a few degrees are relatively rare, as are remnants located more than ten degrees off the Galactic plane. Here we report a UV and optical investigation of two previously…
In order to better characterize the rich supernova remnant (SNR) population of M83 (NGC 5236), we have obtained high-resolution (about 85 km/s) spectra of 119 of the SNRs and SNR candidates in M83 with Gemini/GMOS, as well as new spectra of…
In this paper we discuss the radio continuum and X-ray properties of the so-far poorly studied Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G5.9+3.1. We present the radio spectral energy distribution (SED) of the Galactic SNR G5.9+3.1 obtained with the…
A new faint and large shell-type radio Supernova Remnant (SNR) G108.2-0.6 has been discovered in the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS). The SNR shows an elliptical shell-type structure at 1420 MHz, and has a 408-1420 MHz TT-plot…
A new extended gamma-ray source, which was named as Source A, in the southwest of Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G306.3$-$0.9 was detected with a significance of $\sim$13$\sigma$ at the location of R.A. (J2000) = 13$^{\rm{h}}$…
Evidence has mounted that Type Ia and core-collapse (CC) supernovae (SNe) can have substantial deviations from spherical symmetry; one such piece of evidence is the complex morphologies of supernova remnants (SNRs). However, the relative…
During a detailed search for optical counterparts of known Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) using the Anglo Australian Observatory/United Kingdom Schmidt Telescope (AAO/UKST) HAlpha survey of the southern Galactic plane we have found…
Recent high-resolution infrared space missions have revealed supernova remnants (SNRs) of diverse morphology in infrared (IR) dust emission that is often very different from their X-ray appearance. The observed range of infrared-to-X-ray…
We present the first detailed study on the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G46.8-0.3 and its environment since its discovery more than 50 years ago. With new flux measurements from radio surveys plus a compilation from the literature we…
Recent, and older accurate, data on (limb-darkened) angular diameters is compiled for 221 stars, as well as BVRIJK[12][25] magnitudes for those objects, when available. Nine stars (all M-giants or supergiants) showing excess in the [12-25]…
We present an unbiased spectroscopic study of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) Cygnus Loop using the Large Sky Area Multi-object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) DR5. LAMOST features both a large field of view and a large…
We report on the results from our $\gamma$-ray analysis of the supernova remnant (SNR) RCW 103 region. The data were taken with the Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. An extended source is found at a position…
Type 1a supernova magnitudes are used to fit cosmological parameters under the assumption the model will fit the observed redshift dependence. We test this assumption with the Union 2.1 compilation of 580 sources. Several independent tests…
In the frame of the Astronomical Validation activities for the 64m Sardinia Radio Telescope, we performed 5-22 GHz imaging observations of the complex-morphology supernova remnants (SNRs) W44 and IC443. We adopted innovative observing and…
The properties of the - presumably - youngest Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G1.9+0.3 are investigated within the framework of nonlinear kinetic theory of cosmic ray acceleration in SNRs. The observed angular size and expansion speed as…
