Progenitor Constraint with Circumstellar Material for the Magnetar-hosting Supernova Remnant RCW 103
Stellar winds blown out from massive stars (≳10 M _⊙ ) contain precious information on the progenitor itself, and in this context the most important elements are carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O), which are produced by the CNO cycle in the H-burning layer. Although their X-ray fluorescence li...
