X-ray Brightening and UV Fading of Tidal Disruption Event ASASSN-15oi

S. Gezari, S. B. Cenko, I. Arcavi

We present late-time observations by Swift and XMM-Newton of the tidal disruption event (TDE) ASASSN-15oi that reveal that the source brightened in the X-rays by a factor of $\sim1…

Energetic eruptions leading to a peculiar hydrogen-rich explosion of a massive star

Iair Arcavi, D. Andrew Howell, Daniel Kasen +50

Every supernova hitherto observed has been considered to be the terminal explosion of a star. Moreover, all supernovae with absorption lines in their spectra show those lines decre…

Infrared Emission from Supernova Remnants: Formation and Destruction of Dust

Brian J. Williams, Tea Temim

We review the observations of dust emission in supernova rem- nants (SNRs) and supernovae (SNe). Theoretical calculations suggest that SNe, particularly core-collapse, should make…
