Hyperaccreting Magnetised Neutron Stars inside Rotating Massive Envelopes: Low-Power Jets and Precursor Flares
Patrick Chi-Kit Cheong, Christopher L. Fryer, David Radice
The engulfment of a neutron star (NS) by a massive companion initiates a highly dynamic common-envelope (CE) evolution phase. As the NS spirals into the dense stellar core, it is s…
Hyperaccreting Neutron Stars inside Massive Envelopes: The Implausibility of Thorne-Żytkow Objects
Patrick Chi-Kit Cheong, David Radice, Christopher L. Fryer
The evolution of neutron stars (NSs) embedded within massive stellar envelopes is a critical phase in binary stellar evolution, potentially leading to the formation of Thorne-Żytko…
Production of heavy -elements and Ti in Cas A: comparison to abundances from 1D core-collapse supernova models and evidence for Carbon-Oxygen shell mergers
Luca Boccioli, Lorenzo Roberti, Chris L Fryer +3
The merger between the carbon (C) and oxygen (O) shells hours to days before the collapse of a massive star significantly changes its nucleosynthesis, which is reflected in the ele…
Angular momentum drives proton-rich nucleosynthesis in hyperaccreting neutron stars in common envelopes
Alexander D. Hall-Smith, Sophie E. D. Abrahams, Alison M. Laird +3
Interacting binaries can produce a wide range of exotic systems, including X-ray binaries and merging neutron stars, through a mass transfer phase called Common Envelope (CE) evolu…
Revisiting the Supernova Engines in the 3C 397 and W49B Supernova Remnants
Cole Treyturik, Chelsea Braun, Samar Safi-Harb +2
The nature of the supernova remnants (SNRs) 3C 397 and W49B has long been a subject of debate, with prior studies offering conflicting interpretations between thermonuclear and cor…
Production of radioactive Na in core-collapse supernovae: the Ne-E(L) component in presolar grains and its possible consequences on supernova observations
M. Pignatari, S. Amari, P. Hoppe +8
Presolar graphite grains carry the isotopic signatures of their parent stars. A significant fraction of presolar graphites shows isotopic abundance anomalies relative to solar for…
The Green Monster hiding in front of Cas A: JWST reveals a dense and dusty circumstellar structure pockmarked by ejecta interactions
Ilse De Looze, Dan Milisavljevic, Tea Temim +27
JWST observations of the young Galactic supernova remnant Cassiopeia A revealed an unexpected structure seen as a green emission feature in colored composite MIRI F1130W and F1280W…
Shockingly Bright Warm Carbon Monoxide Molecular Features in the Supernova Remnant Cassiopeia A Revealed by JWST
J. Rho, S. -H. Park, R. Arendt +36
We present JWST NIRCam (F356W and F444W filters) and MIRI (F770W) images and NIRSpec- IFU spectroscopy of the young supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A). We obtained the data as…
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…
Progenitors and Explosion Properties of Supernova Remnants Hosting Central Compact Objects: I. RCW 103 Associated with the Peculiar Source 1E 161348-5055
Chelsea Braun, Samar Safi-Harb, Chris Fryer
We present a Chandra and XMM-Newton imaging and spectroscopic study of the supernova remnant (SNR) RCW 103 (G332.4-00.4) containing the Central Compact Object 1E 161348-5055. The h…
