X-Radiation from Supernova Remnants
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Abstract
Available X-ray observations of supernova remnants are reviewed. The number of SNR seen above 2 keV remains small after inclusion of the UHURU results and for only the Crab Nebula is the data adequate to clearly indicate the radiation mechanism. The increasing importance of low energy X-ray studies (below 1 keV) of older and relatively nearby remnants is noted. Brief discussion is given of the relation of the X-ray data to current ideas of the evolution of SNR.
