The Distance to the Vela Supernova Remnant [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We have obtained high resolution Ca II and Na I absorption line spectra toward 68 OB stars in the direction of the Vela Supernova Remnant. The stars lie at distances of 190 -- 2800 pc as determined by Hipparcos and spectroscopic parallax estimations. The

A Possible Solution to the Mystery of the ANITA Anomalous Events

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 4, April 2026.
In 2006 and 2014, the Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA), a balloon‐borne radio observatory flying over Antarctica, detected two strange upward‐going radio pulse events that have not yet been explained by our current understanding of physics.

Influence of an Internal Magnetar on Supernova Remnant Expansion

open access: yes, 2003
Most of the proposed associations between magnetars and supernova remnant suffer from age problems. Usually, supernova remnants ages are determined from an approximation of the Sedov-Taylor phase relation between radius and age, for a fixed energy of the

Establishing Indium in Frustrated Lewis Pair Chemistry: From Synthesis to Catalytic Applications

open access: yesChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 4, April 2026.
Not that hard: The effects of chemical hardness of the soft FLP tBu2InCH2PtBu2 and its pyridine‐adduct tBu2In(py)CH2PtBu2 were examined in adduct formation reactions toward H2, CO2, and CS2. The frustrated Lewis pair shows catalytic activity in the reduction of CO2 with pinacolborane.

Supernova Dust Evolution Probed by Deep-sea 60Fe Time History

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
There is a wealth of data on live, undecayed ^60 Fe ( t _1/2 = 2.6 Myr) in deep-sea deposits, the lunar regolith, cosmic rays, and Antarctic snow, which is interpreted as originating from the recent explosions of at least two near-Earth supernovae.

Rayleigh-Taylor Instabilities in Type Ia Supernova Remnants undergoing Cosmic-Ray Particle Acceleration - Low Adiabatic Index Solutions

open access: yes, 2011
This study investigates the evolution of Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instabilities in Type Ia supernova remnants that are associated with a low adiabatic index gamma, where gamma < 5/3, which reflects the expected change in the supernova shock structure as a ...

Iron line emission in X-ray afterglows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Recent observations of X-ray afterglows reveal the presence of a redshifted Kalpha iron line in emission in four bursts. In GRB 991216, the line was detected by the low energy grating of Chandra, which showed the line to be broad, with a full width of ...

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Swampland: The Cosmologist's Handbook to the String‐Theoretical Swampland Programme

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.

Missing Titanium in the Asymmetric Supernova Remnant W 49B

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The progenitor of the W 49B supernova remnant is still under debate. One of the candidates is a jet-driven core-collapse supernova. In such a highly asymmetric explosion, a strong α -rich freeze-out is expected in local high-entropy regions, which should

SEARCH FOR A COMPACT SCINTILLATING COMPONENT IN SNR 3С58 AT DECAMETER WAVELENGTHS

open access: yesRadio Physics and Radio Astronomy, 2014
The upper limit for the flux of a compact source of continuum radio emission in SNR 3C58, (2.7 ± 0.9) Jy, was obtained by the highest sensitive observations of interplanetary scintillations at decameter wavelengths.
