Sn 1986J, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02013101

Scientific paper

SN1986J is one of the most luminous, X-ray bright supernovae ever observed. The X-ray emission is attributed to circumstellar interaction with the dense wind from its red supergiant progenitor. Of 18 supernovae yet detected in X-rays, SN1986J is one of a small number followed in X-rays for more than a year. A Cycle 1 Chandra observation provided the first view of the X-ray spectrum, uncontaminated by emission from the host galaxy and from a nearby ultraluminous X-ray source. Compared with ASCA observations taken four years earlier, the Chandra spectrum shows strong evidence for spectral evolution We propose an XMM observation of SN1986J to monitor the evolving X-ray spectrum of this unique source.
