Scientific paper

The results of a systematic study of IR spectra of supernova remnants are presented. Prominent molecular hydrogen lines were detected over a large region extending beyond the optical emission in RCW 103 suggesting an interaction between this remnant and a molecular cloud. The forbidden Fe II transition at 1.6435 microns was found to be a prominent feature in all of the remnants observed. The observed fluxes of hydrogen lines in the IR cannot be reconciled with the measurements of H-alpha and H-beta.
