Reverse Shock Revisited in Cassiopeia A with Chandra
Using data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory, we revisit the reverse shock in the supernova remnant (SNR) Cassiopeia A. Based on spectroscopy of a series of annuli in the northwest (NW) and southeast (SE), we get the radial profiles of the S/Si K α line flux ratio and Fe K α line centroid energy. T...
