Studying the Youngest Galactic Supernova Remnant G1.9+0.3 with Suzaku
Abstract
We present results from the observation of the supernova remnant (SNR) G1.9+0.3, which is the youngest known SNR in the Milky Way, with the X-ray imaging spectrometer (XIS) on board the Suzaku. We investigate the nature of the X-ray emission and derive the properties of the plasma such as temperature, ionization state, composition and density. We compare our results with the previous X-ray studies. Additionally, we present the analysis results of the gamma-ray data taken in the GeV energy range by the Large Area Telescope on board Fermi.
