Scientific paper

The authors have obtained an image of part of the Cygnus Loop in the [Fe X] λ6374 line at a resolution of 2arcsec.5, using a CCD preceded by an interference filter with a 9.5 Å bandpass. The data show a smooth intensity distribution associated with the supernova blast wave; superposed on this is a cloudlike surface-brightness pattern loosely associated with the optical nebulosity. The structures have properties consistent with evaporation of cloudlets into the blast wave interior.
