Description: Observational data and the capabilities of current models for observed filament and shock features of supernova remnants are considered. The filaments emit Balmer lines originating in nonthermal shocks. Models of the generation mechanisms must account for the shock structure and the possibilities of electron thermal precursors to the shock and plasma turbulence, as well as equilibration processes for electron and ion temperatures. It is not yet known if a Maxwellian velocity distribution fits the electrons and ions. An assumption of Coulombic equilibration of ions and electrons has agreed well with some observed forbidden line intensities in the Cygnus Loop, while other lines require detailed radiative transfer calculations.
