The hydrodynamics of the supernova remnant Cas A: The influence of the progenitor evolution on the velocity structure and clumping
B. van Veelen, N. Langer, J. Vink +2
There are large differences in the proposed progenitor models for the Cas A SNR. One of these differences is the presence or absence of a Wolf-Rayet (WR) phase of the progenitor st…
Supernova progenitor stars in the initial range of 23 to 33 solar masses and their relation with the SNR Cas A
B. Perez-Rendon, G. Garcia-Segura, N. Langer
Multi wavelength observations of Cassiopeia A (Cas A) have provided us with a strong evidence for the presence of circumstellar material surrounding the progenitor star. It has bee…
Gamma-Ray Bursts from tidally spun-up Wolf-Rayet stars?
R. G. Detmers, N. Langer, Ph. Podsiadlowski +1
The collapsar model requires rapidly rotating Wolf-Rayet stars as progenitors of long gamma-ray bursts. However, Galactic Wolf-Rayet stars rapidly lose angular momentum due to thei…
Rotation and massive close binary evolution
N. Langer, M. Cantiello, S. -C. Yoon +5
We review the role of rotation in massive close binary systems. Rotation has been advocated as an essential ingredient in massive single star models. However, rotation clearly is m…
Constraints on gamma-ray burst and supernova progenitors through circumstellar absorption lines. (II): Post-LBV Wolf-Rayet stars
A. J. van Marle, N. Langer, G. garcia-Segura
Van Marle et al. (2005) showed that circumstellar absorption lines in early Type Ib/c supernova and gamma-ray burst afterglow spectra may reveal the progenitor evolution of the exp…
Are the Models for Type Ia Supernova Progenitors Consistent with the Properties of Supernova Remnants?
Carles Badenes, John P. Hughes, Eduardo Bravo +1
We explore the relationship between the models for progenitor systems of Type Ia supernovae and the properties of the supernova remnants that evolve after the explosion. Most model…
