Scientific paper

We propose to measure the proper motions and changes in brightness, structure and spectrum of compact features in the Cas A supernova remnant over a two-year baseline. At a fundamental level, this important remnant is governed by the physical evolution of inhomogeneities on all scales, both in its ejecta and in the circumstellar medium. Its multiple interacting plasmas - thermal and relativistic - have distinct kinematics and their relationships are poorly understood. With this very first look at the evolution of the several X-ray emitting plasmas, and our continuing extensive radio and numerical simulation programs, we will take the required next major steps in uncovering Cas A's basic physical nature. [Includes E/PO proposal.]
