Description = > in this proposal, more time is being requested for dpequign.ism_iii = guaranteed-time lws grating spectra have shown atomic fine-structure line emission in a number of young supernova remnants (snr) in the galaxy and the magellanic clouds. continuum dust emission was also detected. this exploratory phase has revealed at least two remnants, cas a and g320.4-1.2, with broad fir [o iii] and [o i] emission, see figure 1. this emission is not correlated with optical emission, suggesting that a new gas phase is being detected in snrs. these broad lines are thought as a signature of expanding, highly processed, possibly very cool, ejecta from supernovae. complementary observations with iso are essential in two directions: 1/ mapping with the lws in [o iii] and [o i] in order to delineate the extension, velocity field, and total intensity of the emission in some sources. 2/ spectroscopy with the sws at selected positions to get a more comprehensive description of the chemical composition and physical conditions in the ejecta from fine-structure lines. some targets of the gt lws programme on snrs have not yet been observed but we anticipate either from experience gained with the first observations or from detailed modelling, that at least two important targets will absolutely need follow up with sws observations: g292.0+1.8, an o-rich galactic snr, and the crab nebula. expected outputs include (1) a characterization of a new gas phase in snrs, (2) an original determination of the mass of nuclearly-processed material in young snrs, and (3) the relative abundances of the elements synthesized in the supernovae.

Mission Description The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) was the world's first true orbiting infrared observatory. Equipped with four highly-sophisticated and versatile scientific instruments, it was launched by Ariane in November 1995 and provided astronomers world-wide with a facility of unprecedented sensitivity and capabilities for a detailed exploration of the Universe at infrared wavelengths.
