Jong-Ho Shinn (Seoul National University):
Studying SNRs with FIMS and AKARI

FIMS is a far-UV (950-1750A) imaging spectrograph aboard the 1st Korean scientific satellite, STSAT-1, and AKARI is a Japanese infrared (1-200 um) imaging satellite. Since far-UV and infrared wavelengths trace different characteristics of interstellar gas, we can apply these to study SNRs from different point of views with these two instruments. In this talk, I will present what we have learned about SNRs with FIMS and AKARI, together with brief introductions on these two instruments.
