Scientific paper

We present preliminary results about the spatially resolved spectroscopy of the supernova remnant Cas A in the energy band 3-10 keV. Data refer to observations performed with the MECS instrument on board BeppoSAX. Images of Cas A have been accumulated in very narrow energy intervals, and then deconvolved with Lucy's method. The spectral analysis of the deconvolved images allowed us to derive the spatial distribution of the relevant spectral parameters of the source with a resolution of about 30 arcsec. .
