The Explosion of Helium Stars Evolved With Mass Loss
Thomas Ertl, Stan E. Woosley, Tuguldur Sukhbold +1
Light curves, explosion energies, and remnant masses are calculated for a grid of supernovae resulting from massive helium stars that have been evolved including mass loss. These p…
Ex Luna, Scientia: The Lunar Occultation eXplorer (LOX)
R. S. Miller, M. Ajello, J. F. Beacom +16
LOX is a lunar-orbiting astrophysics mission that will probe the cosmos at MeV energies. It is guided by open questions regarding thermonuclear, or Type-Ia, supernovae (SNeIa) and…
Probing the Innermost Ejecta Layers in SNR Kes 75: Implications for the Supernova Progenitor
Tea Temim, Patrick Slane, Tuguldur Sukhbold +3
Supernova remnants (SNRs) that contain pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are characterized by distinct evolutionary stages. In very young systems, the PWN drives a shock into the innermos…
Missing Red Supergiants and Carbon Burning
Tuguldur Sukhbold, Scott Adams
Recent studies on direct imaging of Type II core-collapse supernova progenitors indicate a possible threshold around M, where red supergiants with…
ASASSN-18tb: A Most Unusual Type Ia Supernova Observed by TESS and SALT
P. J. Vallely, M. Fausnaugh, S. W. Jha +16
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the unusual Type Ia supernova ASASSN-18tb, including a series of SALT spectra obtained over the course of nearly six months…
Catching Element Formation In The Act
Chris L. Fryer, Frank Timmes, Aimee L. Hungerford +216
Gamma-ray astronomy explores the most energetic photons in nature to address some of the most pressing puzzles in contemporary astrophysics. It encompasses a wide range of objects…
