Abstract
X-ray observations of young supernova remnants (SNR) provide the most direct tool to study their evolution, their chemical composition, and their interaction with the interstellar medium. We will show that the remnants of type I and type II supernova explosions differ considerably in their physical properties and raise different questions. Using two well studied typical remnants, Tycho’s SNR for the type I and the the Crab nebula for the type II remnants, we will discuss the current observational and theoretical state of the art.
