Scientific paper

Although dispersive spectrometers are mainly designed for spectroscopy of unresolved sources, in a number of cases they can be used to obtain high resolution spectra of extended objects. In the case of supernova remnants the Magellanic Cloud remnants are a case in point. Here, however, I present new results based on XMM RGS data of the large Galactic supernova remnant SN 1006. Although the object is very large, by pointing at small (< 1') "knots" spectra have been obtained with a much better spectral resolution than CCD spectra. For SN 1006 I focus on the issue of the ion/electron temperature relaxation and present upper limits on the ion temperature.
