Gamma-Ray, Supernova Remnants

Scientific paper

Gamma-ray line emission from the decays of radio-isotopes produced in supernovae should be detectable by three future gamma-ray telescopes. The 511 keV, 1157 keV, 1173 keV and 1809 keV lines produced in young supernova remnants are a powerful probe of the mass yields and ejecta kinematics of these objects. Nineteen supernova remnants have been studied to determine which gamma-ray lines will be detected by these three instruments. The results of this study and the scientific potential of these observations are discussed. .
