Scientific paper

An ACS image of the H alpha filament in the supernova remnant SN1006 will resolve the thickness of the H alpha emission zone. This will permit us to derive an accurate pre-shock density, which in turn can be used to model the time-dependent X-ray spectrum of the bright X-ray ridge with no free parameters, thus benchmarking these widely used models. We will also search for evidence of a shock precursor, and we will use the scale of ripples in the shock to estimate the level of density inhomogeneity in the pre-shock gas.
