Cassiopeia A is one of the best-studied supernova remnants. Its shocked ejecta emits brightly in radio and X-rays. Its unshocked ejecta can be studied through infrared emission, the radio-active decay of $^{44}$Ti, and low frequency…
It is shown that the nonlinear kinetic theory of cosmic ray (CR) acceleration in supernova remnants (SNRs) describes the shell-type nonthermal X-ray morphology of Cas A, obtained in Chandra observations, in a satisfactory way. The set of…
We present a deep X-ray observation of the young Galactic supernova remnant Cas A, acquired with the ROSAT High Resolution Imager. This high dynamic range (232 ks) image reveals low-surface-brightness X-ray structure, which appears…
We present deconvolved narrow band images of Cas A as observed by the MECS instrument on the BeppoSAX X-ray satellite. The images show that Cas A has different morphologies in the continuum and line bands. This difference points towards a…
We present high spatial resolution X-ray spectroscopy of supernova remnant Cassiopeia A with the {\sl Chandra} observations. The X-ray emitting region of this remnant was divided into 38 $\times$ 34 pixels with a scale of 10$\arcsec$…
We report on proper motion measurements of the forward- and reverse-shock regions of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A), including deceleration/acceleration measurements of the forward shock. The measurements combine 19 years of…
Characterizing the ejecta in young supernova remnants is a requisite step towards a better understanding of stellar evolution. In Cassiopeia A the density and total mass remaining in the unshocked ejecta are important parameters for…
We present images from five observations of the quasar 3C 273 with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The jet has at least four distinct features which are not resolved in previous observations. The first knot in the jet (A1) is very bright in…
We present high angular resolution X-ray images and spectra from two {\em Chandra} ACIS-I observations of the X-ray jet in the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus A. We find that the X-ray emission from the jet is composed of a low surface…
Flux calibrated images of the known supernova remnant G 34.7-0.4 in basic optical emission lines are presented. The low ionization images show a relatively flat flux distribution. The diffuse and patchy morphology of the detected optical…
Cassiopeia A (Cas A) supernova remnant shows strong radiation from radio to gamma-ray bands. The mechanism of gamma-ray radiation in Cas A and its possible contribution to PeV cosmic rays are still under debate. The X-ray imaging reveals an…
Supernova remnants (SNRs) provide crucial information of yet poorly understood mechanism of supernova explosion. Here we present XRISM high-resolution spectroscopy of the intermediate-mass-element (IME) ejecta in the SNR Cas A to determine…
The distribution of elements produced in the inner-most layers of a supernova explosion is a key diagnostic for studying the collapse of massive stars. Here we present the results of a 2.4 Ms \textit{NuSTAR} observing campaign aimed at…
We report 1405 MHz measurements of the flux density of the approximately 320 year old supernova remnant Cassiopeia A, relative to the flux density of Cygnus A, made between 1995 and 1999. When compared to measurements made between 1957 and…
Near-infrared images of the center of the Cas A supernova remnant taken with the NICMOS 2 camera on HST using the F110W and F160W filters (~J & ~H bands) have magnitude limits of 26.2 and 24.6 respectively, but reveal no sources within a…
This paper discusses several aspects of current research on high energy emission from supernova remnants, covering the following main topics: 1) The recent evidence for magnetic field amplification near supernova remnant shocks, which makes…
We present moderately deep (125 ks) {\it XMM-Newton} observations of supernova remnant G330.2$+$1.0. This remnant is one of only a few known that fall into "synchrotron-dominated" category, with the emission almost entirely dominated by a…
Recent simulations have shown that asymmetries in the ejecta distribution of supernova remnants (SNR) can still reflect asymmetries from the initial supernova explosion. Thus, their study provides a great means to test and constrain model…
Deep optical CCD images of the supernova remnant G 15.1-1.6 were obtained and filamentary and diffuse emission has been discovered. The images, taken in the emission lines of Halpha+[N II], [S II] and [O III], reveal filamentary and diffuse…
We report a Herschel detection of high-J rotational CO lines from a dense knot in the supernova remnant Cas A. Based on a combined analysis of these rotational lines, and previously observed ro-vibrational CO lines, we find the gas to be…
