Abstract:

Mixed morphology supernova remnants are an important, but peculiar class of supernova remnants. They have a shell-type morphology in the radio, but the X-ray emission is centrally dominated. X-ray spectroscopy of several of these supernova remnants, indicate that their central plasma is often over-ionised and have enhanced abundances. Here we propose to study a typical member of this class, which has so far not received much attention, despite being bright and only mildly absorbed: 3C400.2. The remnant can be covered with four pointings, and is bright enough for imaging spectroscopy on the scale of the Suzaku PSF. This will enable us to study spectroscopic variation, confirm the preliminary detection of an RRC and map its distribution, and study the abundances.
