Scientific paper

ROSAT all-sky survey (RASS) data have provided another window to search for supernova remnants (SNRs). Utilizing this database, the first catalogue of extended X-ray sources as promising SNR candidates was published ten years ago. However, these targets have not yet been fully explored by the state-of-art X-ray observatories. We have reexamined this catalogue and chosen the brightest SNR candidate, G308.3-1.4, for a detailed spectro-imaging X-ray study with Chandra. We propose a short ACIS-I imaging observation to have a full coverage of G308.3-1.4 in order to investigate its spectrum and morphology in details as well as to search for the associated compact stellar remnants produced in the supernova explosion.
