Abstract
The one dimensional distribution of Fe 14 emission has been determined along a radius of the Cygnus Loop through the use of a tilting filter photometer. The observed emission extends at least 5 arc minutes outside the optical filaments. A simple Sedov solution model of the temperature and density distribution behind the shock agrees with the observations for parameters in reasonable agreement with X-ray maps and optical radial velocities.
