Abstract
Optical velocity field mapping of G292.0+1.8 in the [0III] λ5007 Å line has been carried out using the IPCS with the 3.6 m ESO telescop_e at La Silla. Our data are not consistent with the suggestion that the [0III] emitting material in the western portion of this remnant is concentrated in an expanding ring. The existing data on G292.0+1.8 suggests that only the brightest portion of a thick shell of ejecta with high velocity spurs is observed. The expansion centroid, size, velocity and age of this SNR are derived.
