Scientific paper

Recent ASCA observations of G347.5-0.5 reveal bright regions of nonthermal emission along the rim where the SNR appears to be interacting with an adjacent cloud. This emission is reminiscent of that seen in SN 1006, where it appears that electrons have been accelerated to energies up to 100 TeV by the SNR blast wave. Even more surprisingly, emission from the interior regions appears to display a featureless nonthermal spectrum as well. Radio observations reveal emission around much of the shell, with structured emission along the regions of bright X-ray emission. We propose two AXAF observations of G347.5-0.5 in order to carry out a detailed study of the structure and spectrum of the bright shell region and to perform a sensitive search for thermal emission from the interior.
