摘要:

我们报告的初步结果,从我们的深钱德拉观测(450 ks)的富氧超新星遗迹(SNR)B 0049 -73.6在小麦哲伦云。我们探测到小的富含金属的喷出物特征延伸到B 0049 -73.6的最外边界,这在以前的数据中没有看到较短的曝光。中央星云主要由富含O、Ne、Mg和Si的反向冲击喷出物发射。富氧喷出物在整个中央星云的分布相对平稳。相反,富Si材料是高度结构化的。这些结果表明,B 0049 -73.6是由一颗大质量恒星的不对称核心坍缩爆炸产生的。这些喷出物元素之间的估计丰度比与13-15 $M_{\odot}$祖先爆炸的核合成产物似乎是一致的。中央环状(在投影中)喷出物星云从SNR中心延伸到$\sim$ 9 pc。这表明接触不连续性可能位于比先前估计更远离SNR中心的距离处。我们估计$\sim$的Sedov年龄为17000年,B 0049 -73.6的爆炸能量为$E_0$ $\sim1.7 \times~10^{51}$ erg。我们对B 0049 -73.6中心嵌入致密恒星残骸的$L_{X}\sim$ 8.5 $\times 10^{31}$ erg s $^{-1}$的2-7 keV波段光度设置了严格的上限。

英文摘要:

We report on the initial results from our deep Chandra observation (450 ks) of O-rich supernova remnant (SNR) B0049-73.6 in the Small Magellanic Cloud. We detect small metal-rich ejecta features extending out to the outermost boundary of B0049-73.6, which were not seen in the previous data with a shorter exposure. The central nebula is dominated by emission from reverse-shocked ejecta material enriched in O, Ne, Mg, and Si. O-rich ejecta distribution is relatively smooth throughout the central nebula. In contrast the Si-rich material is highly structured. These results suggest that B0049-73.6 was produced by an asymmetric core-collapse explosion of a massive star. The estimated abundance ratios among these ejecta elements are in plausible agreement with the nucleosynthesis products from the explosion of a 13-15$M_{\odot}$ progenitor. The central ring-like (in projection) ejecta nebula extends to $\sim$9 pc from the SNR center. This suggests that the contact discontinuity may be located at a further distance from the SNR center than the previous estimate. We estimate the Sedov age of $\sim$17000 yr and an explosion energy of $E_0$ $\sim1.7 \times~10^{51}$ erg for B0049-73.6. We place a stringent upper limit on the 2-7 keV band luminosity of $L_{X}\sim$ 8.5 $\times 10^{31}$ erg s$^{-1}$ for the embedded compact stellar remnant at the center of B0049-73.6.
