Title: Radio observations of the remnant of the supernova of A. D. 1006. I. Total intensity observations

Journal Article · · Astron. J.; (United States)
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1086/114244· OSTI ID:6643578

VLA observations are presented of the supernova of A.D. 1006 at 1370 and 1665 MHz with 16 x 20 arcsec resolution. A circular shell whose peak brightness varies by a factor of about 11 with azimuth is seen, with two bright regions dominating the emission; these have extremely sharp outer edges. Several discrete filaments can be followed for substantial portions of the remnant diameter. 29 references.
