Supernovae and astrophysical jets are two of the most energetic and intriguing objects in the universe. We examine an interesting scenario that involves the interaction of these two extreme phenomena, motivated by observations of the W50-SS433 system: a jet launched from the microquasar SS433 (an X-ray binary) located inside a supernova remnant, W50. These observations revealed a unique morphology of the remnant, attributed to the presence of the jet. We performed full 3D relativistic hydrodynamic simulations to better capture the interaction between the remnant and the jet and post-processed the data with a radiative transfer code to create emission maps.
