We report the first XMM detection of the SNR candidate G337.2+0.1 (=AX J1635.9-4719). The object shows centrally filled and diffuse X-ray emission. The emission peaks in the hard 3.0-10.0 keV band. A spatially resolved spectral study confirms that the column density of the central part of the SNR is about N_{H}~5.9 +/- 1.5*10^{22} cm^{-2} and its X-ray spectrum is well represented by a single power-law with a photon index Gamma=0.96 +/- 0.56. The non-detection of line emission in the central spectrum is consistent with synchrotron radiation from a population of relativistic electrons. Detailed spectral analysis indicates that the outer region is highly absorbed and quite softer than the inner region, with N_{H}~16.2(+/-5.2)*10^{22} cm^{-2} and kT=4.4(+/-2.8) keV. Such characteristics are already observed in other X-ray plerions. Based on the morphological and spectral X-ray information, we confirm the SNR nature of G337.2+0.1, and suggest that the central region of the source is a pulsar wind nebula (PWN), originated by an energetic though yet undetected pulsar, that is currently losing energy at a rate of ~ 10^{36} erg s^{-1}.
We present evidence supporting a SNR origin for the radio source G337.2+0.1, which was discovered along the line of sight to the Norma spiral arm in the MOST 843-MHz radio survey. The radio source is spatially superposed to the unidentified ASCA sour
Aims. We report the first detailed X-ray study of the supernova remnant (SNR) G304.6+0.1, achieved with the XMM-Newton mission. Methods. The powerful imaging capability of XMM-Newton was used to study the X-ray characteristics of the remnant at diffe
The supernova remnant (SNR) W51C is a Galactic object located in a strongly inhomogeneous interstellar medium with signs of an interaction of the SNR blast wave with dense molecular gas. Diffuse X-ray emission from the interior of the SNR can reveal
(Abridged) We present a spatial and spectral X-ray analysis of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G352.7-0.1 using archival data from observations made with XMM-Newton and Chandra. Prior X-ray observations of this SNR revealed a thermal center-fill
We present the observation of the Tycho supernova remnant obtained with the EPIC and RGS instruments onboard the XMM-Newton satellite. We compare images and azimuthally averaged radial profiles in emission lines from different elements (silicon and i
