Radiative Acceleration of Dense Circumstellar Material in Interacting Supernovae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Early-time light curves/spectra of some hydrogen-rich supernovae (SNe) provide solid evidence of the existence of confined, dense circumstellar matter (CSM) surrounding dying massive stars. We numerically and analytically study the radiative acceleration

Constraints on cosmic-ray acceleration and transport from isotope observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Observations from the Cosmic Ray Isotope Spectrometer (CRIS) on ACE have been used to derive constraints on the locations, physical conditions, and time scales for cosmic-ray acceleration and transport.

An Account of Luck, Fortune, and Fate

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Luck is one of our most important concepts. In this article, I first argue that extant accounts of luck are deeply flawed. I then argue for a hybrid account of luck that is based around the difference between skill‐based and non‐skill‐based events.

SN 2024aecx: A Double-peaked Rapidly Evolving Type IIb Supernova at 11 Mpc

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the results of low-resolution spectroscopic and densely sampled multiband photometric follow-up of supernova (SN) 2024aecx. The SN was discovered in the spiral galaxy NGC 3521 (distance ∼ 11 Mpc) within a day after the explosion.

Magnetorotational Mechanism of Supernova Type II Explosion

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2005
SummaryResults of 2D simulations of the magnetorotational mechanism of supernova type II are presented. Amplification of toroidal magnetic field of the star due to differential rotation of the star leads to the transformation of the rotational (gravitational) energy to the energy of the supernova explosion. In our simulation the energy of the explosion

Spectropolarimetric Evolution of SN 2023ixf: An Asymmetric Explosion in a Confined Aspherical Circumstellar Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present complete spectropolarimetric coverage of the Type II supernova (SN) 2023ixf, ranging from 1 to 120 days after explosion. Polarimetry was obtained with the Kast double spectrograph on the Shane 3 m telescope at Lick Observatory.

Measuring Expansion Velocities in Type II-P Supernovae

open access: yes, 2011
We estimate photospheric velocities of Type II-P supernovae using model spectra created with SYNOW, and compare the results with those obtained by more conventional techniques, such as cross-correlation, or measuring the absorption minimum of P Cygni ...

The evolution of the peculiar Type Ia supernova SN 2005hk over 400 days [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
$UBVRI$ photometry and medium resolution optical spectroscopy of peculiar Type Ia supernova SN 2005hk are presented and analysed, covering the pre-maximum phase to around 400 days after explosion.

Self‐Driven Humidity Regulation via Hygroscopic Salt Cycling

open access: yesAggregate, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
A series of antimony‐based inorganic‐organic metal halides with gradient water adsorption capacities is designed. The controlled release of the hygroscopic salt ACl from them during adsorption and re‐capture of ACl during the desorption process is achieved. The chemical bonds' reorganization and energy release enable the self‐driven desorption.

Late-time Optical and X-Ray Emission Evolution of the Oxygen-rich SN 1996cr

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
When the ejecta of a supernova (SN) interact with the progenitor star's circumstellar environment, a strong shock is driven back into the ejecta, causing the material to become bright optically and in X-rays.
