On the origin of mixed morphology supernova remnants: Linking their properties to the evolution of a red supergiant progenitor star
Alexandros Chiotellis, Emmanouil Zapartas, Dominique M. -A. Meyer
Mixed-morphology supernova remnants (MMSNRs) are characterized by a shell-like morphology in the radio and centrally-peaked thermal emission in the X-ray band. The nature of this p…
Two shell- and wing-shaped supernova remnants. Investigating the molecular environments around VRO 42.05.01 and G 350.0-2.0
Maria Arias, Ping Zhou, Alexandros Chiotellis +6
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are profoundly affected by their ambient medium. We present carbon monoxide (CO) observations around two mixed morphology SNRs, VRO 42.05.01 and G 350.0-2…
The sculpting of rectangular and jet-like morphologies in supernova remnants by anisotropic equatorially-confined progenitor stellar winds
P. F. Velazquez, D. M. -A. Meyer, A. Chiotellis +5
Thermonuclear and core-collapse supernova remnants (SNRs) are the nebular leftovers of defunct stars. Their morphology and emission properties provide insights into the evolutionar…
Rectangular core-collapse supernova remnants: application to Puppis A
D. M. -A. Meyer, P. F. Velazquez, O. Petruk +9
Core-collapse supernova remnants are the gaseous nebulae of galactic interstellar media (ISM) formed after the explosive death of massive stars. Their morphology and emission prope…
First 3D Morpho-Kinematic model of Supernova Remnants. The case of VRO 42.05.01 (G 166.0+4.3)
Sophia Derlopa, Panos Boumis, Alexandros Chiotellis +2
We present the first three dimensional (3D) Morpho-Kinematic (MK) model of a supernova remnant (SNR), using as a case study the Galactic SNR VRO 42.05.01. We employed the astrophys…
The many sides of RCW 86: a type Ia supernova remnant evolving in its progenitor's wind bubble
Sjors Broersen, Alexandros Chiotellis, Jacco Vink +1
We present the results of a detailed investigation of the Galactic supernova remnant RCW 86 using the XMM-Newton X-ray telescope. RCW 86 is the probable remnant of SN 185 A.D, a su…
Early X-ray emission from Type Ia supernovae originating from symbiotic progenitors or recurrent novae
Georgios Dimitriadis, Alexandros Chiotellis, Jacco Vink
One of the key observables for determining the progenitor nature of Type Ia supernovae is provided by their immediate circumstellar medium, which according to several models should…
Modeling the interaction of thermonuclear supernova remnants with circumstellar structures: The case of Tycho's supernova remnant
A. Chiotellis, D. Kosenko, K. M. Schure +2
The well-established Type Ia remnant of Tycho's supernova (SN 1572) reveals discrepant ambient medium density estimates based on either the measured dynamics or on the X-ray emissi…
Progenitor's signatures in Type Ia supernova remnants
A. Chiotellis, D. Kosenko, K. M. Schure +1
The remnants of Type Ia supernovae can provide important clues about their progenitor-histories. We discuss two well-observed supernova remnants (SNRs) that are believed to result…
