10. SNe and SNRs with circumstellar interactions

1st Abstract

We present near-infrared IFU and MOS observations of two bright [Fe II] line emitting supernova remnants (SNRs). The two SNRs, G11.2-0.3 and RCW103, are selected from our near-infrared [Fe II] 1.64 um narrow band imaging survey of SNRs such as UKIRT unbiased [Fe II] imaging survey of the the Galactic plane and AAT [Fe II] imaging of some core-collapse SNRs. We detect several near-infrared hyperfine lines of [Fe II] at the southeastern shell of G11.2-0.3. We estimate the line strength and extinction-corrected density, which gives a clue to the origin of the iron-rich southeastern shell of G11.2-0.3. We obtain the MOS spectra of [Fe II]-emitting clumps inside RCW103. The observed clumps move about hundreds kilometers in radial direction, suggesting that they are shocked dense materials lost by stellar wind at the final stage of the evolution of the progenitor star.
