X-ray observations of some radio supernova remnants by ANS.
Abstract
With the X-ray instruments aboard the ANS satellite some radio supernova remnants (SNRs) have been observed in the energy ranges 0.16-0.284 keV and 0.32-7 keV. The observations resulted in upper limits for the luminosities from which it is possible to infer, on the basis of an adiabatic shock-wave model, the existence of a tenuous interstellar medium around some SNRs.
