Absorption-line Observations of and CO in Sight Lines Toward the Vela and W28 Supernova Remnants
Supernova remnants act as particle accelerators, providing the cosmic-ray protons that permeate the interstellar medium and initiate the ion–molecule reactions that drive interstellar chemistry. Enhanced fluxes of cosmic-ray protons in close proximity to supernova remnants have been inferred from ob...
