EXOSAT observations of the supernova remnant Cas A.
Abstract
The young supernova remnant Cas A has been observed with the imaging proportional counter of the EXOSAT observatory. High quality spatially resolved, spectral data allow for the first time the determination of the temperature structure of the remnant. Preliminary results on the distribution of temperature and emission measure over the remnant are presented.
