Supernova Remnants Interacting with Molecular Clouds: X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Signatures

Slane, Patrick; Castro, Daniel; Ellison, Donald C. +2 more

The giant molecular clouds (MCs) found in the Milky Way and similar galaxies play a crucial role in the evolution of these systems. The supernova explosions that mark the death of massive stars in these regions often lead to interactions between the supernova remnants (SNRs) and the clouds. These interactions have a profound effect on our understa…
