Abstract

Supernova explosions from massive stars occur inside pre-existing bubbles (produced either by the supernova precursor or by the action of several stars in an OB association) and create composite remnants. Thus, the supernova ejecta do not evolve into a constant-density medium but into one that has been modified by the bubble structure. Here we describe the main features of remnants evolving in the cavities caused by precursor stellar winds or by previous supernova explosions.
