Abstract:

We propose to observe G332.5-5.6, a puzzling supernova remnant with several unusual features: high radio polarization, central emission with bilaterally symmetric limbs, and evidence for enhanced nitrogen suggesting interaction with processed circumstellar material. Very little is known about G332.5-5.6, so our observations will provide information on the remnant shock speed, age, and evolutionary state; on the possible presence of nonthermal emission, either due to a pulsar in the center or to shock-accelerated electrons in the limbs; and on abundances, which might identify ejecta emission and allow the classification of the supernova.
