Scientific paper

We propose to measure independently the proper motion expansions of the ejecta and forward shock in E0509-67.5. The metal-enriched reverse-shock-heated ejecta emits only in X-rays, while the forward shock is traced to high precision by H alpha emission. The proposed measurements require the unique high resolution imaging capabilities of Chandra and Hubble. The optical forward shock and X-ray ejecta results will yield important constraints on the remnant's evolutionary state; we will search in particular for evidence of cosmic-ray modified dynamics. An important component of this project is an integrated theoretical investigation using realistic models of SN Ia explosions evolved to the remnant stage.
