Radio and X-ray Emission from Newly Born Remnants
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Abstract
Radio and X-ray observations of SN 1979c and SN 1980k offer a unique opportunity of monitoring the transition from supernovae to remnants. By means of the two-frequency radio light curves, we test the hypothesis that these objects are surrounded by circumstellar matter, originated in a pre supernova wind, and derive the relevant parameters. Then we use the absorption-corrected light curves to test the various proposed models. SN 1980 k appears to be powered by a canonical shock, while SN 1979c is a good plerion candidate. An optical pulsar could still be detected at its location.
