X-ray emission from superbubbles

Abstract

The results of Rosat observations of superbubbles in the Large Magellanic Cloud provided X-ray spectra for bright objects and data on upper limits of faint objects. The X-ray emission from superbubbles can be used to determine the physical condition of the superbubble interior, place constraints on the ambient interstellar medium, and diagnose the existence of supernova remnant shocks.
