Spectral Index Variations and Physical Conditions in Kepler ’
A new epoch of VLA measurements of Kepler’s supernova remnant was obtained to make accurate measurements of the radio spectral index variations and polarization. We have compared these new radio images with Hα, infrared, and X-ray data to better understand the three dimensional structure and dynamics of Kepler, and to better understand the physical relationships between the various nonthermal a...
متن کاملRadio Spectral Index Variations of the SNR HB3
We present images of the SNR HB3 at both 408 MHz and 1420 MHz from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey mainly based on data from the Synthesis Telescope of the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory. We reproduce the 100m-Effelsberg HB3 image at 2695 MHz at large scale, and find that there exists a background emission gradient across the HB3 area. Based on our analysis of background emission a...
متن کاملMulti - frequency radio spectral studies of the supernova remnant G 78 . 2 + 2 . 1
A new map of the SNR G78.2+2.1 at 232 MHz is presented. This map is used with other images at 408, 1420, 2695 and 4800 MHz to investigate the total spectral index of the SNR and the variation of spectral index across it. The integrated spectral index is α = 0.54 ± 0.02 (where S ν ∝ ν −α). Maps of the spectral-index variation across the source are derived using a method which calculates a differ...
متن کاملA Peculiar Linear Radio Feature In The Supernova Remnant N206
We present images of the supernova remnant N206 in the LMC, taken with ATCA at wavelengths of 3 and 6 cm. Based on our data and previously published flux densities, the spectral index of N206 is −0.20 ± 0.07. The 6-cm radio morphology shows a filled center. Most interesting is the discovery of a peculiar linear feature previously undetected at any wavelength. The feature lies to the east of the...
متن کاملThe Expansion of G11.2−0.3, a Radio Composite Supernova Remnant
We compare recent observations of the supernova remnant G11.2−0.3 taken with the VLA during 2001−02 with images from VLA archives (1984−85) to detect and measure the amount of expansion that has occurred during 17 years. The bright, circular outer shell shows a mean expansion of (0.71± 0.15)% and (0.50±0.17)%, from 20and 6-cm data, respectively, which corresponds to a rate of 0. 057±0. 012/yr a...
