Abstract:

We propose to conduct Suzaku observations of the Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) Kes 69 (G21.8-0.6) and 3C 396 (G39.2-0.3). These SNRs were detected in the infrared by Spitzer and their infrared colors suggest that shocked molecules produce the observed emission. Published analyses of the X-ray emission from these SNRs (along with our own analysis of archival XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of these sources) reveals that the emission from both Kes 69 and 3C 396 is thermal and that they may both be mixed-morphology SNRs (MMSNRs) but deeper observations are needed to clarify their X-ray spectral properties. In particular, we will investigate whether these X-ray emitting plasmas are overionized, which is observed for other MMSNRs.
