Dust destruction by the supernova remnant forward shock in a turbulent interstellar medium
Tassilo Scheffler, Nina S. Sartorio, Florian Kirchschlager +3
Context. While supernova remnants (SNRs) are observed to produce up to 1 M of dust, the amount of dust destroyed by the forward shock (FS) is poorly constrained, raising th…
From total destruction to complete survival: Dust processing at different evolutionary stages in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A
Florian Kirchschlager, Nina Sartorio, Ilse De Looze +3
The expanding ejecta of supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to form dust in dense clumps of gas. Before the dust can be expelled into the interstellar medium and contribute to t…
A JWST Survey of the Supernova Remnant Cassiopeia A
Dan Milisavljevic, Tea Temim, Ilse De Looze +43
We present initial results from a JWST survey of the youngest Galactic core-collapse supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A), made up of NIRCam and MIRI imaging mosaics that map emi…
Dust survival rates in clumps passing through the Cas A reverse shock -- II. The impact of magnetic fields
Florian Kirchschlager, Franziska D. Schmidt, M. J. Barlow +2
Dust grains form in the clumpy ejecta of core-collapse supernovae where they are subject to the reverse shock, which is able to disrupt the clumps and destroy the grains. Important…
Silicate grain growth due to ion trapping in oxygen-rich supernova remnants like Cassiopeia A
Florian Kirchschlager, M. J. Barlow, Franziska D. Schmidt
Core-collapse supernovae can condense large masses of dust post-explosion. However, sputtering and grain-grain collisions during the subsequent passage of the dust through the reve…
Dust destruction by the reverse shock in the clumpy supernova remnant Cassiopeia A based on hydrodynamic simulations
Florian Kirchschlager, Franziska D. Schmidt, M. J. Barlow +3
Observations of the ejecta of core-collapse supernovae have shown that dust grains form in over-dense gas clumps in the expanding ejecta. The clumps are later subject to the passag…
Dust survival rates in clumps passing through the Cas A reverse shock I: results for a range of clump densities
Florian Kirchschlager, Franziska D. Schmidt, M. J. Barlow +3
The reverse shock in the ejecta of core-collapse supernovae is potentially able to destroy newly formed dust material. In order to determine dust survival rates, we have performed…
Dynamical friction for supersonic motion in a homogeneous gaseous medium
Daniel Thun, Rolf Kuiper, Franziska Schmidt +1
The supersonic motion of gravitating objects through a gaseous medium constitutes a classical problem in theoretical astrophysics. Its application covers a broad range of objects a…
