Abstract:
Supernovae near the galactic center
evolve differently from regular galactic
supernovae. This is mainly due to the
environment into which the supernova
remnants propagate. Instead of a static,
uniform density medium, SNRs near the
galactic center propagate into a wind-
swept environment with a velocity away
from the galactic center, and a graded
density profile. This causes these SNRs
to be non - spherical, and to evolve
faster than their galactic counterparts.
We develop an analytic theory for the
evolution of explosions within a stellar
wind, and verify it using a hydrodynamic
code. We show that such explosions
can evolve in one of three possible
morphologies. Using these results we
discuss the association between the two
SNRs (SGR East and SGR A's bipolar
radio/X-ray Lobes) and the two neutron
stars (the cannonball and SGR J1745-
2900) near the galactic center. We show
that, given the morphologies of the SNR
and positions of the neutron stars, the
only possible association is between
SGR A's bipolar radio/X-ray Lobes and
SGR J1745-2900. The compact object
created in the explosion of SGR East
remains undetected, and the SNR of the
supernova that created the cannonball
has already disappeared.
