The discovery by COMPTEL of the 44Ti line emission at 1.16 MeV from the youngest known Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) Cas A has opened a new window for the investigation of SNR properties. This discovery also shows a way that could help to uncover missing young remnants of Galactic SNe that might

Spectropolarimetry of core collapse supernovae has shown that they are asymmetric and often, but not universally, bi-polar. Jet-induced supernova models give a typical jet/torus structure that is reminiscent of some objects like the Crab nebula, SN 1987A and Cas A. Asymmetry in the strength of polar
Motivated by the possibility that cosmic rays (CR) originate from supernova remnants, we ask ourselves what we learn on CR and ฮฝ produced in these systems from the emitted very high energy (VHE) ฮณ radiation. We answer to this question in a simple, accurate and model-independent way.
