Scientific paper

The nearby supernova SN 1987A provides an unprecedented opportunity to study the formation of a supernova remnant as the supernova shock front interacts with the surrounding circumstellar medium. The spectrum obtained here should give unique information concerning the physical conditions, composition and (through Doppler broadening) bulk velocity of the X-ray emitting gas. Repeated observations through the duration of the AXAF mission will trace the complex evolution of the shock.
