[50.02] High Resolution Studies of IRAS Additional Observations: G2.4+1.4

High spatial resolution (=FD30") images of the IRAS Additional Observations of the supernova remnant/Wolf-Rayet mass loss region G2.4+1.4 were reconstructed in all four IRAS bands. The 25 micron images show a multi-ringed structure that is coincident on the H emission features. An undiscovered ring or arm in 25 and 60 microns north of the Wolf-Rayet star has been observed. This ring-like feature had no related structure in H or the radio spectrum. The IRAS features and colors are consistent with a combined SNR and a mass loss region associated with a Wolf-Rayet star.
