Ejecta clumps revealed by study of reverse-shocked ejecta through MUSE integral field spectroscopy of SNR 0509-67.5

Priyam Das, Ivo Seitenzahl, J. Martin Laming +3

We report the discovery of a spatially resolved clumpy ejecta structure in the reverse-shocked ejecta of SNR 0509-67.5, revealed through multiple faint and broad forbidden coronal…

Deep MUSE observations of SNR 0509-67.5 reveal a double degenerate merger progenitor

Priyam Das, Ivo R. Seitenzahl, Gilles Ferrand +5

Deep MUSE observations of SNR 0509-67.5 reveal that the coronal [Fe\,\textsc{xiv}] 5303 emission line appears with either one or two velocity components across the entire…

Multi-dimensional NLTE radiative transfer for a double detonation Type Ia explosion model in the photospheric phase

F. P. Callan, L. J. Shingles, S. A. Sim +7

Previous radiative transfer calculations have shown that both multi-dimensionality and NLTE (non local thermodynamic equilibrium) effects impact the synthetic observables predicted…

A MUSE View of the Optical Torus within the Supernova Remnant 1E 0102.2-7219

Janette Suherli, Samar Safi-Harb, Ivo R. Seitenzahl +7

We present new MUSE Narrow Field Mode with Adaptive Optics observations of the optical torus surrounding a Central Compact Object (CCO) candidate within the oxygen-rich supernova r…

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…

Helium emission from Balmer-dominated shocks in Type Ia supernova remnants provides constraints to their progenitor systems

Priyam Das, Ivo Rolf Seitenzahl, Parviz Ghavamian +4

Balmer-dominated shocks in Type Ia supernova remnants offer powerful probes into collisionless shock physics and hints towards supernova progenitor environments. Prior studies focu…
