Abstract
We present self-similar solutions for remnants that are mass-loaded by conductively driven evaporation. This work extends the earlier results of Chieze and Lazareff through the inclusion of the explicit dependence of the mass-loading rate on position as well as temperature, and the treatment of cylindrically symmetric as well as spherically symmetric cases. The latter case is relevant to an individual supernova remnant in its adiabatic phase expanding into a clumpy interstellar medium. The former case may be relevant to the evolution of the outflow from a young galaxy in which a nearly simultaneous burst of star formation occurs as the density increases on its axis of symmetry.
