We present X-ray images of Tycho's supernova remnant in emission line features of Mg, Si, S, Ar, Ca, and Fe, plus the continuum, using data obtained by the imaging spectrometers onboard the ASCA X-ray satellite. All the images show the…
We present an analysis of the X-ray emission of the supernova remnant MSH14-63, which was partially covered by three observations with XMM-Newton. The detection of Fe K emission at 6.4 keV, and the lack of spatial correlation between hard…
We present a detailed analysis of the XMM-Newton long-look of the Seyfert galaxy IC 4329a. The Fe K bandpass is dominated by two resolved peaks at 6.4 keV and 7.0 keV, consistent with neutral or near-neutral Fe K alpha and K beta emission.…
{\it Chandra} X-ray observations of Kepler's supernova remnant indicate the existence of a high speed Fe-rich ejecta structure in the southwestern region. We report strong K-shell emission from Fe-peak elements (Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni), as well as…
The observation of the supernova remnant N132D by the scientific instruments on board the XMM-Newton satellite is presented. The X-rays from N132D are dispersed into a detailed line-rich spectrum using the Reflection Grating Spectrometers.…
Aims: We present a study of the Galactic supernova remnant SNR G15.9+0.2 with archival XMM-Newton observations. Methods: EPIC data are used to investigate the morphological and spectral properties of the remnant, searching in particular for…
Near-infrared spectra (0.95 - 2.4 micron) of the Cassiopeia A and Kepler supernova remnants (SNRs) are presented. Low-dispersion (R = 700) spectra were obtained for five bright fast-moving ejecta knots (FMKs) at two locations on the main…
The X-ray emission from the supernova remnant DEM L 71 is measured and analysed using the high-resolution cameras and spectrometers on board XMM-Newton. The spectrum from the outer shell is reproduced very well by two plasma components of…
Kepler's supernova remnant (SNR) is believed to result from a Type Ia supernova, but be interacting with dense circumstellar material (CSM), which makes its progenitor system a mystery. Using the Chandra ACIS-S 741 ks effective exposure…
