Observational test of particle acceleration theory-shell supernova remnants
Abstract
We discuss ways in which radio continuum observations of shell supernova remnants can be applied to the study of astrophysical particle acceleration. As an example, radio observations of SNRs Cas A, G39.2-0.3, and G41.1-0.3 are presented.
