Impact of Historical Chinese astronomical records on high-energy sources in our Galaxy
Abstract
Owing to the rapid progress of space sciences and the high-energy astrophysics in the past 2-3 decades, historical supernova records have made important contributions to modern astrophysics and will continue to do so in the future. The main topics here are the earliest supernova observed by human beings and the AD393 guest star as well as our new concept of “Po stars”
