Composite supernova remnants (SNRs) constitute a small subclass of the remnants of massive stellar explosions where non-thermal radiation is observed from both the expanding shell-like shock front and from a pulsar wind nebula (PWN) located…
We report the observations of the radio shell of the supernova remnant (SNR) G310.6-1.6 at 943 MHz from the Evolutionary Map of the Universe (EMU) and the Polarization Sky Survey of the Universe's Magnetism (POSSUM) surveys by using the…
We present Chandra X-ray observations of the supernova remnant (SNR) N63A in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). N63A, one of the brightest LMC remnants, is embedded in an H II region and probably associated with an OB association. The…
Using the Subaru 8.2m Telescope with an IRCS Echelle spectrograph, we obtained high-resolution (R=10,000) near-infrared (1.01-1.38 \mu m) spectra of images A and B of the gravitationally lensed QSO B1422+231 (z=3.628) consisting of four…
Supernova Remnants (SNRs) are believed to be acceleration sites of Galactic cosmic rays. Therefore, deep studies of these objects are instrumental for an understanding of the high energy processes in our Galaxy. RX J0852.0-4622, also known…
We report on our initial analysis of a deep 510 ks observation of the Galactic oxygen-rich supernova remnant (SNR) G292.0+1.8 with the {\it Chandra X-ray Observatory}. Our new {\it Chandra} ACIS-I observation has a larger field of view and…
We present the results of our ASCA SIS and GIS observations of the supernova remnant VRO42.05.01. Our spectral fits indicate that the SNR is isothermal (about 8.3 X 10^6 K), consistent with our ROSAT analysis results. The absorbing column…
I briefly summarize some facts and ideas concerning the presence of neutron stars in Supernova remnants. While sources similar to the Crab Nebula require the presence of a central energetic object, shell-type remnants such as Cas A are…
We report the likely detection of gamma-ray emission from the northeast shell region of the historical supernova remnant (SNR) SN 1006. Having analyzed 7 years of Fermi LAT Pass 8 data for the region of SN 1006, we found a GeV gamma-ray…
We discovered a middle-aged supernova remnant (SNR) in the vicinity of G69.7+1.0 using the ASCA satellite. G69.7+1.0 was identified in the 2.7 GHz survey and classified as a shell-type SNR with a diameter of 16 arcmin. During the ROSAT…
We present dust features and masses observed in young supernova remnants (SNRs) with Spitzer IRS mapping and staring observations of four youngest supernova remnants: SNR 1E102.2-7219 (E0102) in the SMC, Cas A and G11.2-0.3 in our Galaxy,…
We present the preliminary results of a 40.8 ks Chandra ACIS observation of the young supernova remnant (SNR) N103B located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The image reveals structure at the sub-arcsecond level, including several bright…
We have discovered three certain (SAX J1324.5-6313, 2S 1711-339 and SAX J1828.5-1037) and two likely (SAX J1818.7+1424 and SAX J2224.9+5421) new thermonuclear X-ray burst sources with the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras, and observed a second…
We report here on the first detection at X-ray wavelengths of the Supernova Remnant (SNR) G337.8-0.1, carried out with the XMM-Newton Observatory. Using the X-ray observations, we studied the X-ray morphology of the remnant at different…
We present optical spectroscopic observations of the supernova remnants (SNRs) G107.7$-$5.1 and G150.3+4.5, each spanning nearly 3 degree. Both remnants were recently examined in the optical band through a deep H$\alpha$ and [OIII]…
We report the results of a BeppoSAX observation of the composite supernova remnant G0.9+0.1, located in the Galactic Center region. This new observation, in which the core of G0.9+0.1 is observed on-axis, confirms our previous results…
We present early-time Swift and Chandra X-ray data along with late-time optical and near-infrared observations of SN 2013by, a Type IIL supernova (SN) that occurred in the nearby spiral galaxy ESO 138$-$G10 (D $\sim 14.8$ Mpc). Optical and…
