The Cygnus Loop (G74.0-8.5) is a very well-known nearby supernova remnant (SNR) in our Galaxy. Thanks to its large size, brightness, and angular offset from the Galactic plane, it has been studied in detail from radio to $\gamma$-ray…
We report on a discovery of a diffuse nebula containing a pointlike source in the southern blowout region of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant, based on Suzaku and XMM-Newton observations. The X-ray spectra from the nebula and the pointlike…
(Abridged) We have conducted a total intensity and polarization survey of the Galactic plane at 6 cm using the Urumqi 25 m telescope for the Galactic longitude range of 10 deg<l<60 deg and the Galactic latitude range of |b|<5 deg. Missing…
Large-scale radio continuum surveys have good potential for discovering new Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs). Surveys of the Galactic plane are often limited in the Galactic latitude of |b| ~ 5 degree. SNRs at high latitudes, such as the…
We present the C III {\lambda}977, O VI {\lambda}{\lambda}1032, 1038 and N IV] {\lambda}1486 emission line maps of the Cygnus Loop, obtained with the newly processed data of Spectroscopy of Plasma Evolution from Astrophysical Radiation…
Radiative shock waves in the Cygnus Loop and other supernova remnants show different morphologies in [O III] and H{\alpha} emission. We use HST spectra and narrowband images to study the development of turbulence in the cooling region…
We present a collection of double-lobed sources towards a 20 sq deg area of the Cygnus region at the northern sky, observed at 325 and 610~MHz with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. The 10'' resolution achieved at 325 MHz is 5.5 times…
Underlying nearly every quantitative discussion of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant is uncertainty about its distance. Here we present optical images and spectra of nebulosities around two stars whose mass-loss material appears to have…
We have obtained a contiguous set of long-slit spectra of a shock wave in the Cygnus Loop to investigate its structure, which is far from the morphology predicted by 1D models. Proper motions from Hubble Space Telescope images combined with…
The Cygnus Loop is a well-studied supernova remnant (SNR) that has been observed across the electromagnetic spectrum. Although widely believed to be an SNR shell with a blow- out region in the south, we consider the possibility that this…
We present far ultraviolet spectra of a fast (~ 300 km/s) nonradiative shock in the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant. Our observations were performed with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) satellite, covering the wavelength…
The Cygnus Loop is a nearby supernova remnant (SNR) observed across the electromagnetic spectrum. With the analysis of 6 years of Fermi/LAT data we find that, what previous studies had considered a single source, consists of an extended…
We report the detection of linearly polarized emission at 53 and 89 $\mu$m, from the radio-loud active galactic nucleus (AGN) Cygnus A using HAWC+ onboard SOFIA. We measure a highly polarized core of $11\pm3$% and $9\pm2$% with a position…
We have observed the Cygnus Loop from the northeast (NE) rim to the southwest (SW) rim using Suzaku in 10 pointings that is just north of previous XMM-Newton observations. The observation data obtained were divided into 45 rectangular…
G156.2+5.7 is a large supernova remnant (SNR) first discovered in the ROSAT X-ray survey but radio observations are rare because of its low surface brightness and large size. Radio continuum and polarization images of the SNR G156.2+5.7 at…
We use the new QUIJOTE-MFI wide survey (11, 13, 17 and 19 GHz) to produce spectral energy distributions (SEDs), on an angular scale of 1 deg, of the supernova remnants (SNRs) CTB 80, Cygnus Loop, HB 21, CTA 1, Tycho and HB 9. We provide new…
The Sino-German 6cm polarization survey has mapped in total intensity and polarization intensity over an area of approximately 2200 square degrees in the Galactic disk. This survey provides an opportunity to search for Galactic supernova…
We present new 6 and 20 cm Very Large Array (VLA) observations of polarized continuum emission of roughly 0.5 square degrees of the Galactic center (GC) region. The 6 cm observations detect diffuse linearly-polarized emission throughout the…
High quality 4500-6800 A spectropolarimetric observations of the Circinus galaxy are reported. These show polarized and relatively broad (FWHM~3300 km/s) Halpha (as well as marginal Hbeta) arising from a <3" (<60 pc) region centered on the…
We report on full-polarization radio observations of the Perseus cluster (Abell 426) using the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) at wavelengths from 81-95 cm. We have employed a novel technique, Rotation Measure synthesis…
