We present the first far-ultraviolet (FUV) emission-line morphologies of the whole region of the supernova remnant (SNR) G65.3+5.7 using the FIMS/SPEAR data. The morphologies of the C IV {lambda}{lambda}1548, 1551, He II {lambda}1640, and O III] {lam bda}{lambda}1661, 1666 lines appear to be closely related to the optical and/or soft X-ray images obtained in previous studies. Dramatic differences between the C IV morphology and the optical [O III] {lambda}5007 image provide clues to a large resonant-scattering region and a foreground dust cloud. The FUV morphologies also reveal the overall distribution of various shocks in different evolutionary phases and an evolutionary asymmetry between the east and the southwest sides in terms of Galactic coordinates, possibly due to a Galactic density gradient in the global scale. The relative X-ray luminosity of G65.3+5.7 to C IV luminosity is considerably lower than those of the Cygnus Loop and the Vela SNRs. This implies that G65.3+5.7 has almost evolved into the radiative stage in the global sense and supports the previous proposal that G65.3+5.7 has lost its bright X-ray shell and become a member of mixed-morphology SNRs as it has evolved beyond the adiabatic stage.
Far ultraviolet (FUV) spectral images of the Spica H II region are first presented here for the Si II* 1533.4A and Al II 1670.8A lines and then compared with the optical Halpha image. The H alpha and Si II* images show enhanced emissions in the south ern part of the H II region where H I density increases outwards. This high density region, which we identify as part of the interaction ring of the Loop I superbubble and the Local Bubble, seems to bound the southern H II region. On the other hand, the observed profile of Al II shows a broad central peak, without much difference between the northern and southern parts, which we suspect results from multiple resonant scattering. The extended tails seen in the radial profiles of the FUV intensities suggest that the nebula may be embedded in a warm ionized gas. Simulation with a spectral synthesis code yields the values of the Lyman continuum luminosity and the effective temperature of the central star similar to previous estimates with 10^46.2 photons s^-1 and 26,000 K, respectively, but the density of the northern H II region, 0.22 cm^-3, is much smaller than previous estimates for the H alpha brightest region.
We report the detection of the C IV 1548, 1551 emission line in the region of the RCW 114 nebula using the FIMS/SPEAR data. The observed C IV line intensity indicates that RCW 114 is much closer to us than WR 90, a Wolf-Rayet star that was thought to be associated with RCW 114 in some of the previous studies. We also found the existence of a small H I bubble centered on WR 90, with a different local standard of rest velocity range from that of the large H I bubble which was identified previously as related to RCW 114. These findings imply that the RCW 114 nebula is an old supernova remnant which is not associated with WR 90. Additionally, the global morphologies of the C IV, H-alpha, and H I emissions show that RCW 114 has evolved in a non-uniform interstellar medium.
