Pre-Shock and post-shock abundance ratios of atomic carbon to CO in IC 443 G

Abstract

IC 443 is a prominent, well-studied supernova remnant. Optical pictures show multiple filaments through the midst of which runs a lane of extinction. Bright H₂ emission marks the region of interaction between the SNR and the foreground cloud. Clump G is at the western side of the SNR and is heavily obscured. At its position the velocity of supernova shock is nearly in the plane of the sky and the radial velocity of the shocked material is displaced very little from that of the ambient foreground material.
