Using CFHT's SITELLE to Probe the Long-Sought Supernova Remnant Shell in the Crab Nebula
Lucas V. da Conceição, Janette Suherli, Samar Safi-Harb +3
We present deep, wide-field integral field spectroscopy of the Crab nebula obtained with the imaging Fourier transform spectrometer SITELLE at the Canada--France--Hawaii Telescope…
Intertwined birth and death: a Herbig-Haro outflow resolves the distance to Vela Junior
Janette Suherli, Ivo R. Seitenzahl, Samar Safi-Harb +8
The distance to the Vela Junior supernova remnant (RX J0852.0-4622 or G266.2-1.2) has long remained uncertain, limiting our understanding of its physical properties. Using VLT/MUSE…
Deciphering the explosion mechanism of Type Ia SNe using their remnants II: a deep dive into double detonations with SNR 0509-67.5
Soham Mandal, Parviz Ghavamian, Priyam Das +3
Type Ia supernovae (SNe) occur when a white dwarf (WD) explodes via runaway thermonuclear burning. Till date, major uncertainties remain regarding the nature of the explosion mecha…
Type Ia supernova explosion models are inherently multidimensional
R. Pakmor, I. R. Seitenzahl, A. J. Ruiter +5
Theoretical and observational approaches to settling the important questions surrounding the progenitor systems and the explosion mechanism of normal Type Ia supernovae have thus f…
MUSE observations of the optical nebula surrounding the central compact object in the Vela Junior Supernova Remnant
Janette Suherli, Samar Safi-Harb, Ivo R. Seitenzahl +6
Central Compact Objects (CCOs), neutron stars found near the centre of some Supernova Remnants (SNRs), have been almost exclusively studied in X-rays and are thought to lack the wi…
Chasing Gravitational Waves with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Jarred Gershon Green, Alessandro Carosi, Lara Nava +563
The detection of gravitational waves from a binary neutron star merger by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo (GW170817), along with the discovery of the electromagnetic counterparts…
