Scientific paper

Supernova remnants (SNRs) have a variety of different properties and come from progenitors with a range of masses and companions. I shall describe some of the morphologies and spectral properties over all wavelength bands plus environments of selected prototypical SNRs and discuss how we can attempt to relate them to their progenitors. Most young remnants, with a notable exception of Kepler 1604, can be successfully classified but after they have swept up about 8 times their ejected mass and entered the point-blast phase of their evolution, their parentage is more difficult to determine. Statistical arguments or the location of some form of neutron star within the remnant are the best indicators for the oldest remnants.
