Search for the time evolution of the synchrotron X-ray spectrum of the youngest Galactic supernova remnant G1.9+0.3 using Suzaku

Published 25 Dec 2017 in astro-ph.HE | (1712.09122v1)

Abstract: G1.9+0.3 is the youngest known Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) and dominated by X-ray synchrotron emission. Synchrotron X-rays can be a useful tool to study the electron acceleration in young SNRs. The X-ray spectra of young SNRs give us information about the particle acceleration at the early stages of evolution of SNRs. In this work, we investigate the time evolution of roll-off frequency of the synchrotron spectrum from SNR G1.9+0.3 using Suzaku. For this analysis, we use ~101 ks (2011) and ~92 ks (2015) observations with the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer. We find that there are no significant differences in the spectral parameters and interpret our results.
