Explosion Mechanisms of Massive Stars
H. -Th. Janka, R. Buras, K. Kifonidis +2
One of the central problems in supernova theory is the question how massive stars explode. Understanding the physical processes that drive the explosion is crucial for linking the…
The XMM-Newton view of the radio-quiet neutron star 1E 1207.4-5209
A. De Luca, S. Mereghetti, P. A. Caraveo +3
We have observed the radio-quiet X-ray pulsar 1E 1207.4-5209 with the high throughput EPIC cameras onboard XMM-Newton. The spectrum of this peculiar source is characterized by two…
HST proper motion confirms the optical detection of PSR B1929+10
A. De Luca, R. P. Mignani, P. A. Caraveo +1
We have measured the proper motion of the candidate optical counterpart of the old, nearby pulsar PSR B1929+10, using a set of HST/STIS images collected in 2001, 7.2 years after th…
Near-infrared spectroscopy of Seyfert galaxies
J. K. Kotilainen, J. Reunanen, M. A. Prieto
Results from near-infrared 1.5 - 2.5 micron long-slit spectroscopy of 14 nearby Seyfert galaxies are presented.
The surface carbon and nitrogen abundances in models of ultra metal-poor stars
H. Schlattl, M. Salaris, S. Cassisi +1
We investigate whether the observed high number of carbon- and nitrogen-enhanced extremely metal-poor stars could be explained by peculiar evolutionary properties during the core H…
Model atmospheres for type Ia supernovae: Basic steps towards realistic synthetic spectra
D. Sauer, A. W. A. Pauldrach
Type Ia supernovae are an important tool for studying the expansion history of the universe. Advancing our yet incomplete understanding of the explosion scenario requires detailed…
