Search for an X-ray Counterpart to VER J2019+407
Abstract
VER J2019+407 is a very high energy gamma-ray source detected by the VERITAS observatory and lying within the angular extent of the gamma-Cygni supernova remnant (SNR). We present here the results of a 50ks Chandra observation, taken with the intention of elucidating the nature of the source and its relationship (if any) with the SNR. Imaging and spectral analysis are presented, and scenarios for the reconciliation of X-ray and gamma-ray findings are discussed.
