The central pointlike X-ray source of the Cas A supernova remnant was discovered in the Chandra First Light Observation and found later in the archival ROSAT and Einstein images. The analysis of these data does not show statistically…

The neutron-star X-ray source 1E 161348-5055, associated with the supernova remnant RCW 103, exhibits clear intensity variations with a period of 6.67 hr. To clarify the nature of this object and its long periodicity, detailed timing…

The spectacular first light observation by the Chandra X-Ray Observatory revealed an X-ray point source near the center of the 300 yr old Cas A supernova remnant. We present an analysis of the public X-ray spectral and timing data. No…

We observed the compact central object CXOU J085201.4--461753 in the supernova remnant G266.2--1.2 (RX J0852.0--4622) with the Chandra ACIS detector in timing mode. The spectrum of this object can be described by a blackbody model with the…

The central source of the supernova remnant PKS 1209-52 was observed with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer aboard Chandra X-ray observatory on 2000 January 6-7. The use of the Continuos Clocking mode allowed us to perform the timing…

We present the first results of an XMM-Newton observation of the central X-ray source in the Cas A supernova remnant. The spectrum can be fit equally well with an absorbed steep power law (alpha~3, N_H~1.5x10^22 cm^-2) or with a…

We present results of a recent Chandra X-ray Observatory observation of the central compact object (CCO) in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. This observation was obtained in an instrumental configuration that combines a high spatial…

We report observations of the remnant of Supernova 1987A with the High Resolution Camera (HRC) onboard the Chandra X-ray Observatory. A direct image from the HRC resolves the annular structure of the X-ray remnant, confirming the morphology…

Less than half of the SNRs within 5 kpc have identified central sources, and only three are identified as the remnants of Type Ia SNe. Here, we report a systematic effort to search for compact central sources in the remaining 23 SNRs of…

There are several supernova remnants which contain unresolved X-ray sources close to their centers, presumably radio-quiet neutron stars. To prove that these objects are indeed neutron stars, to understand the origin of their X-ray…

X-ray images of some young supernova remnants show bright point sources which have not been detected in radio, optical and gamma-ray bands. Despite the similarity of the X-ray spectra of these objects, they show a variety of temporal…

A Chandra X-ray observation has detected an unresolved source at the center of the supernova remnant Kes 79. The best single-model fit to the source spectrum is a blackbody with an X-ray luminosity Lx (0.3-8.0 keV) = 7 x 10^{33} ergs…

We report the discovery of pulsed X-ray emission from the compact source 1E 1841-045, using data obtained with the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astrophysics. The X-ray source is located in the center of the small-diameter supernova…

(Abridged) We present a Chandra observation of the supernova remnant (SNR) 3C 397 (G41.1-0.3) obtained with ACIS-S. Previous studies of this SNR have shown that it harbors a central X-ray `hot spot' suggestive of a compact object associated…

We report the discovery of pulsed X-ray emission from the compact object CXOU J112439.1-591620 within the supernova remnant (SNR) G292.0+1.8 using the High Resolution Camera on the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The X-ray period (P=0.13530915…

We report on high time resolution observations of the SNR 3C 58 using the High Resolution Camera on the Chandra X-ray Observatory. These data show a point-like central source, from which we detect 65.68 ms pulsations at 6.7 sigma…

We clarify the nature of the small-diameter supernova remnant (SNR) Kes 73 and its central compact source, 1E 1841-045, using X-ray data acquired with the ASCA Observatory. We introduce a spatio-spectral decomposition technique necessary to…

To examine the previously claimed fast cooling of the Central Compact Object (CCO) in the Cas A supernova remnant (SNR), we analyzed two Chandra observations of this CCO, taken in a setup minimizing instrumental spectral distortions. We fit…

We identify the radio-emitting shell-type supernova remnant G15.9+0.2 as a relatively young remnant containing an X-ray point source that may be its associated neutron star. The integrated spectrum of the remnant shell obtained from our 30…

The Chandra X-ray Observatory recently discovered an X-ray point source near the center of Cassiopeia A, the youngest known Galactic supernova remnant. We have conducted a sensitive search for radio pulsations from this source with the Very…
