Summaryedit
Description |
English: This is a composite image of the SN 1006 supernova remnant, which is located about 7,000 light years from Earth. Shown here are X-ray data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory (blue), optical data from the University of Michigan's 0.9 meter Curtis Schmidt telescope at the NSF's Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO; yellow) and the Digitized Sky Survey (orange and light blue), plus radio data from the NRAO's Very Large Array and Green Bank Telescope (VLA/GBT; red). This combined study of the Chandra, CTIO and VLA/GBT observations shows new evidence for the acceleration of charged particles to high energies in supernova shockwaves. A twisting ribbon of light seen by Hubble reveals where the expanding blast wave is sweeping into very tenuous surrounding gas.
Magyar: A Földtől nagyjából 7000 fényévre található SN 1006 szupernova maradványról készült kompozít kép. A kép a röntgen (kék), a rádió (piros) és optikai (narancs és sárga) felvételek összedolgozásából hozták létre.
