Supernova Remnants

Supernova Remnants is an astrophysical structure consisting of a diffuse, expanding nebula of stellar ejecta and swept-up interstellar medium bounded by shock fronts that is created by a supernova explosion and serves as a major site of high-energy (X-ray and gamma-ray) emission and dynamical and chemical feedback into the interstellar medium.
