Evolving Supernova Remnants in Multiphase Interstellar Media

Abstract

We performed three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations to study the evolution of a supernova remnant (SNR) in a turbulent neutral atomic interstellar medium. The media used as background shares characteristics with the Solar neighbourhood and the SNR has mass and energy similar to those of a Type Ia object. Our initial conditions consist of dense clouds in a diluted medium, with the main difference between simulations being the average magnitude of the magnetic field. We measured amplifications of the magnetic energy of up to 34$\%$ and we generated synthetic maps that illustrate how the same object can show different apparent geometries and physical properties when observed through different lines of sight.
