Einstein IPC observations of 6 new radio supernova remnants.
Abstract
The Einstein data bank was searched for observations of objects from the list of new radio supernova remnants of Reich et al. (1988). Six of the 33 objectcs were found to have been observed in 8 IPC fields. Three of the 6 supernova remants were detected in the 0.2-4 keV X-ray band, with statistical significances of 6.5-sigma, 4.3-sigma, and 2.7-sigma. The 2-sigma upper limits were determined for the other three remnants. Fluxes and X-ray luminosities are derived and X-ray images presented for the three detections. Sedov models indicate that they are intermediate aged remnants.
