The 46 pages that link to Supernova remnant, each with the reason it gives.
Interstellar mediumBroader topic: Supernovae heat, compress, and enrich the medium, driving much of its turbulence.
X-ray astronomyRelated: X-rays map hot shock-heated gas and the elements forged in stellar explosions.
SupernovaBroader topic: It is the evolving debris produced by the explosion.
Shock waveRelated: Its outward shock wave heats and compresses interstellar gas.
Cosmic rayRelated: Shock acceleration in remnants is a leading explanation for many Galactic cosmic rays.
Core-collapse supernovaNarrower topic: It records the explosion’s interaction with surrounding material over thousands of years.
Gamma-ray astronomyRelated: Gamma rays from remnants can reveal interactions between accelerated particles and surrounding matter or radiation.
Supernova nucleosynthesisBroader topic: Remnant spectra and composition provide observational evidence of synthesized ejecta.
SN 1987ANarrower topic: SN 1987A is evolving into a remnant as its ejecta strike the inner ring.
Crab NebulaNarrower topic: The Crab’s nebula is the observable remnant of the 1054 explosion.
Emission nebulaCompared with: Some remnants emit nebular lines, but shock heating rather than nearby stellar ultraviolet often powers their glow.
Herbig–Haro objectCompared with: Both involve shock emission, but a supernova remnant is powered by an exploded star.
Population III starRelated: First-star remnants dispersed newly forged elements and influenced nearby gas collapse.
NebulaBroader topic: Some nebulae are shaped by shock waves and ejecta from supernovae.
Red supergiantRelated: A red-supergiant explosion can leave a remnant enriched by its outer layers.
Rayleigh–Taylor instabilityBroader topic: Rayleigh–Taylor mixing helps distribute stellar ejecta through the remnant.
Cassiopeia ANarrower topic: Cassiopeia A is a nearby, young example of this class of object.
Interstellar magnetic fieldRelated: Supernova shocks can compress and amplify magnetic fields in the surrounding interstellar medium.
Pulsar wind nebulaRelated: Many pulsar wind nebulae expand within the debris of the supernova that formed their pulsar.
Eta CarinaeCompared with: Eta Carinae’s nebula formed before any confirmed terminal explosion, unlike a supernova remnant.
Tarantula NebulaRelated: Past supernovae have added shock waves and energy to the nebula's complex environment.
Crab PulsarNarrower topic: The Crab Pulsar showed that a compact remnant can actively power a supernova remnant.
Einstein ObservatoryRelated: Einstein resolved X-ray emission from remnants, revealing hot structures within the debris.
X-ray telescopeRelated: X-ray observations map shock-heated gas and compact objects within these expanding remnants.
Fermi Gamma-ray Space TelescopeRelated: Fermi observations test whether these remnants accelerate cosmic rays that produce gamma rays.
Reflection nebulaCompared with: Its glow is powered chiefly by shocked or energized gas rather than reflected starlight.
XMM-NewtonRelated: XMM-Newton detects the hot plasma and energetic processes in these remnants.
Astrophysical fluid dynamicsBroader topic: Their evolution is governed by blast-wave fluid dynamics and interactions with ambient gas.
Astrophysical maserRelated: Some masers arise where supernova-driven shocks compress and excite molecular gas.
Superluminous supernovaNarrower topic: The late-time debris can preserve evidence about the explosion's energy source.
Kepler's SupernovaNarrower topic: The visible nebula is the surviving debris of the 1604 explosion.
Messier 82Related: Overlapping explosions help energize M82’s outflow and its bright radio emission.
SN 1054Narrower topic: The Crab Nebula is the evolving remnant of the explosion.
Galactic astronomyRelated: Remnants reveal how stellar deaths inject energy and elements into the interstellar medium.
High-energy astrophysicsBroader topic: Its shocks can accelerate cosmic rays and emit X-rays and gamma rays.
Interstellar cloudRelated: Its shock waves can compress interstellar clouds and trigger or disrupt collapse.
NGC 6302Compared with: Unlike this explosion-driven structure, NGC 6302 formed from material shed by a star without a supernova.
NGC 6946Narrower topic: The remnants preserve evidence of earlier explosions between recorded supernova events.
ROSATRelated: ROSAT surveys mapped remnants and traced hot gas from supernova explosions.
SN 1572Narrower topic: The event’s surviving debris can be studied long after its light faded.

Stochastic self-propagating star formation modelBroader topic: An expanding remnant can sweep up gas into a shell where stars may form.
