| ABSTRACT | |
| The composition and dynamics of supernova remnants inform us on the explosion mechanism of the supernova and the evolution of the progenitor. The Galactic remnant G292.0+1.8 is an evolved remnant rich in emission from shocked ejecta and circumstellar material. It is also bright in [OIII] emission. Here we propose for a 500ks observation of G292. We will perform Doppler tomography on the ejecta in order to measure their 3D dynamics. Additionally, we request 100ks of Chandra ACIS-I time to measure the expansion of the forward shock and motion of the pulsar, and 8 orbits of HST/ACS time to measure the transverse motion of the bright optical knots. Our proposed program will be complemented by a ground based spectroscopic survey and approved XRISM observations. | |
