G327.1-1.1, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02038201

Scientific paper

Recent X-ray observations of the composite SNR G327.1-1.1 have revealed complex structure in the central PWN. The likely counterpart to the associated neutron star has been identified, and it is embedded in a bow-shock like structure at the tip of a long X-ray tail. Elongated structures protrude opposite the tail; their nature is not at all understood. Faint thermal emission from the SNR shell is detected, but its properties are so poorly measured that a reliable age from which the pulsar velocity can be estimated does not currently exist. We propose a deep XMM-Newton observation in order to map the spatial and spectral structure of the extended PWN features and to derive the spectral properties of the thermal shell. A pulsation search will also be conducted.
