The Effect of SNR Structure on Non-equilibrium X-ray Spectra
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Extract
A technique is presented for characterizing the ionization structure and consequent thermal x-ray emission of a SNR when non-equilibrium ionization effects are important. The technique allows different theoretical SNR models to be compared and contrasted rapidly in advance of detailed numerical computations. In particular it is shown that the spectrum of a Sedov remnant can probably be applied satisfactorily in a variety of SNR structures, including the reverse shock model advocated by Chevalier (1982) for Type I SN, the isothermal similarity solution of Solinger, Rappaport and Buff (1975), and various inhomogenous or ‘messy’ structures.
