The Galactic SNR G351.2 + 0.1 has been imaged at frequencies of 1.4, 5, and 15 GHz. The images reveal a source composed of two distinct components: a broken elongated shell measuring 4 x 6 arcmin and a central core about 15 arcsec in diameter. The two components are spectrally distinct. The shell has a nonthermal spectrum (alpha = -0.4) typical for Galactic SNRs, while the central core has an inverted spectrum (alpha = +0.27). The central core may be an analog of the Crab Nebula (a synchrotron nebula powered by a pulsar), but if so it is not typical of such objects. 10 references.
