Scientific paper

The radio and X-ray images of the supernova remnant CTB 109 have the morphology of a semicircular shell. It is shown that such a structure is a natural result of a supernova explosion that occurred 3,000 yr ago near an interface between the diffuse interstellar medium and a dense molecular cloud. The calculated X-ray, infrared, and radio fluxes agree fairly well with the observed values.
