Cygnus Loop ADS: search title/keyword/abstract or fulltext

• Right Ascension: 20 51 00
• Declination: +30 40
• Size (/arcmin): 230×160
• Type: S
• Flux density at 1 GHz (/Jy): 210
• Spectral Index: varies

Notes: Has been suggested that this is two overlapping remnants.

Radio: Shell, brightest to the NE, with fainter breakout region to S, with spectral variations.

Optical: Large filamentary loop, brightest to the NE, not well defined to the S or W.

X-ray: Shell in soft X-rays.

Point sources: Several compact radio sources within the boundary of the remnant.

Distance: Stellar interactions gives 0.73 kpc.
