SNR Types
We distinguish between 3 different types of radioSNRs:
pure shell-type, created by the interaction of theexpanding shockwave with circumstellarmaterial (80 %)filled-centre, plerion-type, crab-like, or pulsarwind nebula, created by an energetic wind ofparticles and magnetic field injected by acentral pulsar (5 %)
composite type (15 %)

SNR Types
But theoretically there should be only 2 types:
pure shell-type, as the remnant of thethermonuclear explosion of a white dwarf(SNIa), since in these explosions the whole staris destroyed (�� � ��� � ���� �����, �� � �����).
composite type, as the remnant of thecore-collapse explosion of a massive star (SNII,SNIb/c), since in these explosions a rotatingneutron star is left behind (�� � ��

Shell-type SNRs
The hydrodynamic evolution of shell-typeremnants is divided into three major phases:
free expansion phase
adiabatic expansion phase, or Sedov phase
radiative expansion phase

Shell-type SNRs
Free Expansion:
expansion is dominated by theejecta (� � �), which contains aradial magnetic field - a relic ofthe progenitor star - and lasts afew hundred up to 2000 yr
swept up material is slowlyaccumulating outside the ejectawith a frozen in tangentialmagnetic field
between ejecta and swept up ma-terial a turbulent zone is estab-lished in which electrons are ac-celerated to relativistic velocities

Evolution of Pulsar Wind Nebulae
PWNe are expected to expand inside their hostshell-type remnant and to follow their expansioncharacteristics. However,...
a few pulsar winds are stronger than the explosion itself,e.g. the Crab pulsar, which has released about ���� erginto its nebula, while the explosion energy was supposedto be merely a few times ��
�� erg
on the other hand there are many pulsars with a veryweak wind and their nebulae are a lot smaller than theinterior of the remnant, e.g. W44, which has a size ofmore than 30’, but the PWN inside has a size of only

Evolution of Pulsar Wind Nebulae
When the interaction between the ejecta and theswept up material becomes strong a reverse shockis created, travelling back into the interior of theSNR:
this leads to compression and maybe additional electronacceleration in the PWN
a density gradient in the ambient medium can lead to anasymmetric reverse shock and an off-centre position forthe pulsar, e.g. Vela (Blondin et al., 2001)

The reverse shock pushed away
the original PWN, creating the dif-

The cooling break frequency is slowly decreasingwith time while the intrinsic break should remainconstant after the lifetime of the pulsar.

Future Prospects:with the Urumqi 25m telescope at 6cm
observations of large SNRs to study the latestages of evolution
comparison with other surveys give us:rotation measure values and magnetic fielddirectionsspectral index fluctuations to indicateevolutionary phases
discover new shell-type remnants and evenmore important pulsar wind nebulae
