Abstract

This paper presents a multi-wavelength analysis of supernova remnants (SNRs) in the galaxies NGC 5068 and NGC 628, based on archival optical data from MUSE and X-ray observations from Chandra. SNR candidates are identified through emission-line diagnostics and the selection is performed by established criteria. Extinction-corrected fluxes allow the derivation of luminosities, densities, and shock velocities. Using the optical data, a comparison between the two galaxies is carried out to identify any trends. Additionally, the X-ray counterparts of the optical candidate SNRs are identified and their properties are presented
