The Progenitor of the S147 Supernova Remnant

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The supernova remnant (SNR) S147 contains the pulsar PSR J0538+2817 and a likely unbound binary companion, HD 37424. It is the only good Galactic candidate for a binary unbound by a core-collapse supernova.

Probing X-ray Absorption and Optical Extinction in the Interstellar Medium Using Chandra Observations of Supernova Remnants

open access: yes, 2016
We present a comprehensive study of interstellar X-ray extinction using the extensive Chandra supernova remnant archive and use our results to refine the empirical relation between the hydrogen column density and optical extinction.

Classical, large-scale 3D magneto-hydrodynamic simulations of interacting pulsar wind nebulae

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Magnetised rotating neutron stars, or pulsars, are a possible end product of massive star evolution. Their relativistic wind successively interacts with the supernova ejecta of their defunct progenitor, then with the circumstellar medium of the ...

Exploring the Physics of Type Ia Supernovae Through the X-ray Spectra of their Remnants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present the results of an ongoing project to use the X-ray observations of Type Ia Supernova Remnants to constrain the physical processes involved in Type Ia Supernova explosions.

Supernova Ejecta with Crystalline Silicate Dust in the Supernova Remnant MSH 15–52

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
IRAS 15099-5856 in the young supernova remnant (SNR) MSH 15−52 is the first and only SNR-associated object with crystalline silicate dust detected so far, although its nature and the origin of the crystalline silicate are still unclear. In this paper, we

Supernova 1604, Kepler’s Supernova, and Its Remnant [PDF]

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. Supernova 1604 was very likely a Type Ia supernova, which exploded 350 pc to 750 pc above the Galactic plane.

A Comparative Study of the Supernova Remnant Cassiopeia A from 2013 to 2020 Deep [Fe ii] + [Si i] Images

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a comparative analysis of supernova remnant Cassiopeia A based on two deep, narrow-band images covering the [Fe ii ] 1.644 μ m + [Si i ] 1.645 μ m lines obtained in 2013 and 2020 with the same instruments on the UKIRT 3.8 m telescope.

Distances to Recent Near-Earth Supernovae from Geological and Lunar 60Fe

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Near-Earth supernova blasts which engulf the solar system have left traces of their ejecta in the geological and lunar records. There is now a wealth of data on live radioactive ^60 Fe pointing to a supernova at 3 Myr ago, as well as the recent discovery

Signatures of Electromagnetic and Sound Radiation Produced by Gravitational Waves in Core-collapse Supernovae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This paper presents the scenario that gravitational waves, generated in the core collapse of a pre-supernova star, can produce both electromagnetic radiation and sound radiation as gravitational waves propagate outward from the collapsing core. While the
