Soft X-ray observations of supernova remnants
Abstract
Observations of a number of supernova remnants have been carried out with the low energy X-ray telescope on the Copernicus satellite. Data are presented on the X-ray structure of the remnants Cassiopeia A and Puppis-A. Marginal detections or new upper limits are reported for the remnants IC443, DR4, MSH15-52A, Downes 83, Downes 84, and 3C392.
