Evidence of a Curved Synchrotron Spectrum in the Supernova Remnant SN 1006

Evidence of a Curved Synchrotron Spectrum in the Supernova Remnant SN 1006

A joint spectral analysis of some Chandra ACIS X-ray data and Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope radio data was performed for 13 small regions along the bright northeastern rim of the supernova remnant SN 1006. These data were fitted with a synchrotron radiation model. The nonthermal electron spectrum used to compute …
