Safe landings are imperative to accomplish NASA’s Artemis goal to enable human exploration on the Moon, including sample collection missions. However, a process known as plume surface interaction (PSI) presents a significant hazard to lunar landings. PSI

Optical flashes and radio flares in GRB afterglows: Numerical study [PDF]
We numerically study the evolution of an adiabatic relativistic fireball interacting with an ambient uniform medium, both in the initial energy transfer stage and in its late evolution.

Supernova ejecta with a relativistic wind from a central compact object: a unified picture for extraordinary supernovae [PDF]
The hydrodynamical interaction between freely expanding supernova ejecta and a relativistic wind injected from the central region is studied in analytic and numerical ways. As a result of the collision between the ejecta and the wind, a geometrically thin shell surrounding a hot bubble forms and expands in the ejecta.

Rubble-pile asteroids may be the type of near-Earth object most likely to threaten Earth in a future collision event. Small-scale impact experiments and numerical simulations for large-scale impacts were conducted to clarify the size ratio of the boulder/

Primordial massive supernovae as the first molecular factories in the early universe [PDF]
We study the ejecta chemistry of a zero-metallicity progenitor, massive, supernova using a novel approach based on chemical kinetics. Species considered span the range of simple, di-atomic molecules such as CO or SiO to more complex species involved in dust nucleation processes.

High-energy X-ray radiography investigation on the ejecta physics of laser shock-loaded tin
This study is devoted to the high-energy X-ray radiography investigation on the ejecta physics of laser shock-loaded tin. The ejecta were generated via laser shock loaded tin under sequential shock-breakout pressures by high-power nanosecond lasers.

Doppler Broadening and Line-of-sight Effects in Core-collapse Supernovae and Young Remnants
The dynamics and spectral characteristics of supernova ejecta reveal details of the supernova energetics, explosive nucleosynthesis, and evolution of the progenitor.

Infrared emission from kilonovae: the case of the nearby short hard burst GRB 160821B [PDF]
We present constraints on Ks-band emission from one of the nearest short hard gamma-ray bursts, GRB 160821B, at z=0.16, at three epochs. We detect a reddened relativistic afterglow from the jetted emission in the first epoch but do not detect any excess ...

Supernova ejecta interacting with a circumstellar disk. I. two-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic simulations [PDF]
We perform a series of two-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of the collision between supernova ejecta and circumstellar media (CSM). The hydrodynamic interaction of a fast flow and the surrounding media efficiently dissipates the kinetic energy of the fast flow and considered as a dominant energy source for a specific class of core ...
