G22.7-0.2

Note: this is an archived version which has been superseded. The current SNR catalogue is at https://www.mrao.cam.ac.uk/surveys/snrs/

Radio: Non-thermal ring in complex region, overlapping G23.3−0.3.
X-ray: Possible detection.
Point sources: Variable radio source near centre, and γ-ray source near edge.
Distance: Association with CO indicates 4.4 kpc, HI absorption suggests 4.7 kpc, optical extinction suggests 4.7 kpc.
