X-Ray Emission From SN Ia 1885A \& 1986G

POSTER

Abstract

X-ray emission is expected from the explosion and subsequent evolution of a Type Ia supernova. The outgoing shock will run into circumstellar material from early phases of the progenitor's evolution and generate X-ray emission from the interaction. To date, Type Ia supernovae have not been convincingly detected as X-ray sources. A number of remnants in the Milky Way are X-ray sources (eg, SN1006, Tycho). The question of when Type Ia supernovae become X-ray-emitting remnants remains open. We analyze and discuss the available Chandra X-ray Observatory data on two old Type Ia supernovae, SN1885A in M31 and SN1986G in NGC 5128 (= Cen A).
