Scientific paper

We propose two ACIS-I observations to obtain high-quality spectra and images of the bright northeast region of the supernova IC 443. We aim to identify coherent shock structures in conjunction with optical images, and to perform spatially resolved spectroscopy and spectral imaging. The northeast region of IC 443 is interacting with diffuse interstellar medium, atomic and molecular clouds at its various boundaries. We will explore compare the X-ray ane optical morphologies in detail, and measure the temperature and density structures of the X-ray emitting gas behind these different shock environments. We will also search for correlations with coronal [Fe X] and [Fe XIV] emission to look for signatures of cloud evaporation.
