New Evidence for Efficient Collisionless Heating of Electrons at the Reverse Shock of a Young Supernova Remnant
Hiroya Yamaguchi, Kristoffer A. Eriksen, Carles Badenes +7
Although collisionless shocks are ubiquitous in astrophysics, certain key aspects of them are not well understood. In particular, the process known as collisionless electron heatin…
Identification of a Jet-Driven Supernova Remnant in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Possible Evidence for the Enhancement of Bipolar Explosions at Low Metallicity
Laura A. Lopez, Daniel Castro, Patrick O. Slane +2
Recent evidence has suggested that the supernova remnant (SNR) 0104-72.3 in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) may be the result of a prompt Type Ia SN based on enhanced iron abundan…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: The astrophysics of supernova remnants and the interstellar medium
A. Decourchelle, E. Costantini, C. Badenes +22
The study of both supernova remnants and the hot and cold phases of the interstellar medium are essential for understanding the final stages of stellar evolution and their feedback…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: A White Paper presenting the science theme motivating the Athena+ mission
Kirpal Nandra, Didier Barret, Xavier Barcons +237
This White Paper, submitted to the recent ESA call for science themes to define its future large missions, advocates the need for a transformational leap in our understanding of tw…
Observations of SN2011fe with INTEGRAL
J. Isern, P. Jean, E. Bravo +19
SN2011fe was detected by the Palomar Transient Factory on August 24th 2011 in M101 few hours after the explosion. From the early spectra it was immediately realized that it was a T…
A Super-Solar Metallicity for the Progenitor of Kepler's Supernova
Sangwook Park, Carles Badenes, Koji Mori +8
We have performed deep X-ray observations of the remnant of Kepler's supernova (SN 1604) as a Key Project of the Suzaku Observatory. Our main goal is to detect secondary Fe-peak el…
Observation of SN2011fe with INTEGRAL. I. Pre--maximum phase
J. Isern, P. Jean, E. Bravo +19
SN2011fe was detected by the Palomar Transient Factory on August 24th 2011 in M101 a few hours after the explosion. From the early optical spectra it was immediately realized that…
