We present a spatial comparison of the X-ray synchrotron emission and the radio synchrotron emission observed toward the northwestern rim complex of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G266.2-1.2. This particular SNR -- along with SN 1006 and G347.3-0.5 -- belong to a class of sources where the observed X-ray emission primarily originates from the synchrotron process.
Using data obtained from high angular resolution X-ray and radio observations made with the Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Australia Telescope Compact Array, we perform spatial comparisons of the observed synchrotron emission as well as analyze radial profiles of the emission at both wavelength domains. Initial results and tentative conclusions will be presented and discussed.
