Map of the LMC in the SHASSA continuum band, indicating the positions of the eight target SNRs (core collapse SNRs with green circles, Type Ia SNRs with cyan squares). The overlaid contours are from the Hα SHASSA image, which highlights the LMC disk, the W, S, and B spiral arms (Staveley-Smith et al. 2003), and the 30 Dor region around SN 1987A and N158A.
