7. SNRs as probes and drivers of galaxy structure

1st Abstract

A software tool has been created which includes all stages of evolution of a spherical supernova remnant, from ejecta-dominated stage to dissipation and merging with the interstellar medium. The principles of operation of the software, and the application of this tool to observations of supernova remnants is demonstrated.

7. SNRs as probes and drivers of galaxy structure

2nd Abstract

The set of supernova remnants (SNR) from Green’s SNR catalog which are found in the VLA Galactic Plane Survey are studied here. For this set of 34 SNR, we extract and analyze HI absorption spectra in a uniform way and construct a catalog of absorption spectra and distance determinations. The results of this work will be summarized.
