The faint supernova remnant G 116.5+1.1 and the detection of a new candidate remnant
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The extended supernova remnant G 116.5+1.1 was observed in the optical emission lines of H], [] and []; deep long slit spectra were also obtained. The morphology of the remnant's observed emission is mainly diffuse and patchy in contrast to the known filamentary emission seen along the western limb. The bulk of the detected emission in the region appears unrelated to the remnant but there is one area of emission in the south-east which is characterized by a []/Hα ratio of ~0.5, implying a possible relation to G 116.5+1.1. If this is actually the case, it would imply a more extended remnant than previously realized. Emission in the [] 5007 Å line image is not detected, excluding moderate or fast velocity shocks running into ionized interstellar clouds. Our current estimate of the distance to G 116.5+1.1 of ~3 kpc is in agreement with earlier estimates and implies a very extended remnant ( pc). Observations further to the north-east of G 116.5+1.1 revealed a network of filamentary structures prominent in H] and [] but failed to detect [] line emission. Long slit spectra in a number of positions provide strong evidence that this newly detected emission arises from shock heated gas. Typical Hα fluxes lie in the range of 9 to 17 10-17 erg s-1 cm-2 arcsec-2, while low electron densities are implied by the intensities of the sulfur lines. Weak emission from the medium ionization line at 5007 Å is detected in only one spectrum. Cool dust emission at 60 and 100 microns may be correlated with the optical emission in a limited number of positions. Surpisingly, radio emission is not detected in published surveys suggesting that the new candidate remnant may belong to the class of “radio quiet” supernova remnants.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
