Scientific paper
The current observational situation regarding the presence or absence of collapsed stellar objects associated with supernova remnants is reviewed. The theoretical expectations and observational evidence for the various possible classes of stellar remnants are discussed. The results of searches for these objects in the radio, optical, X-ray and γ-ray regions of the spectrum are outlined with the conclusion that nine bona fide candidates are currently known. The implications of these results for the origin and evolution of compact objects are summarized.
