The formation and assembly of a typical star-forming galaxy at z~3

Cassiopeia A: dust factory revealed via submillimetre polarimetry
L. Dunne, S. J. Maddox, R. J. Ivison +7
If Type-II supernovae - the evolutionary end points of short-lived, massive stars - produce a significant quantity of dust (>0.1 M_sun) then they can explain the rest-frame far-inf…
