An Integral View of Fast Shocks Around Supernova 1006 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Supernova remnants are among the most spectacular examples of astrophysical pistons in our cosmic neighborhood. The gas expelled by the supernova explosion is launched with velocities ~1000 kilometers per second into the ambient, tenuous interstellar ...

When galaxies refuel: Evolution of the perturbed spiral galaxy NGC 1385

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The spiral galaxy NGC 1385 is characterized by a vigorous and protracted history of star formation, particularly in its central regions, that led to a current star formation rate that surpasses those of comparable systems.

GALACTIC AND EXTRAGALACTIC SUPERNOVA REMNANTS AS SITES OF PARTICLE ACCELERATION

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2013
Supernova remnants, owing to their strong shock waves, are likely sources of Galactic cosmic rays. Studies of supernova remnants in X-rays and gamma rays provide us with new insights into the acceleration of particles to high energies. This paper reviews

An investigation of some contemporary problems in astronomy and astrophysics by way of early astronomical records [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Early astronomical records of comets, supernovae, novae, sunspots and aurorae from Far Eastern dynastic histories together with records from Babylonians cuneiform tablets are compiled and analysed.

Modelling high-resolution spatially-resolved Supernova Remnant spectra with the Sardinia Radio Telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Supernova Remnants (SNRs) exhibit spectra featured by synchrotron radio emission arising from the relativistic electrons, and high-energy emission from both leptonic (Bremsstrahlung and Inverse Compton) and hadronic processes (π0 mesons decay) which are ...

Evaluation of Sealing Strength in Multilayer LLDPE Packaging for Impact-Resistant Rice Pouches

open access: yesJurnal Kimia Sains dan Aplikasi
In this study, we evaluate the mechanical integrity, thermal stability, and impact resilience of three different laminated polymer materials—PA/LLDPE, MDO-PE/LLDPE, and BOPE/LLDPE—to assess their suitability for rice packaging applications.

Star Formation as Seen by Low Mass Stars

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
Using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) we have characterised and compared the physical properties of a large sample of pre-main sequence (PMS) stars spanning a wide range of masses (0:5 - 4Mʘ), metallicities (0:1 - 1 Zʘ) and ages (0:5 - 30 Myr).

Merger of Noncompact Binaries: Triggering Mechanisms and Merger Timescales of W UMa Contact Binaries

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The merger of noncompact binaries can produce a variety of significant celestial objects, including blue stragglers, luminous red novae, and others. However, several key details of the merger of noncompact binaries remain unclear.

Supernova 1604, Kepler’s Supernova, and its Remnant

open access: yes, 2016
Supernova 1604 is the last galactic supernova for which historical records exist. Johannes Kepler’s name is attached to it, as he published a detailed account of the observations made by himself and European colleagues.
