X-Ray Luminous Supernovae: Threats to Terrestrial Biospheres
Ian R. Brunton, Connor O'Mahoney, Brian D. Fields +2
The spectacular outbursts of energy associated with supernovae (SNe) have long motivated research into their potentially hazardous effects on Earth and analogous environments. Much…
Near-Earth Supernovae in the Past 10 Myr: Implications for the Heliosphere
Jesse A. Miller, Brian D. Fields, Thomas Y. Chen +10
We summarize evidence that multiple supernovae exploded within 100 pc of Earth in the past few Myr. These events had dramatic effects on the heliosphere, compressing it to within ~…
Supernova Dust Evolution Probed by Deep-sea 60Fe Time History
Adrienne F. Ertel, Brian J. Fry, Brian D. Fields +1
There is a wealth of data on live, undecayed 60Fe () in deep-sea deposits, the lunar regolith, cosmic rays, and Antarctic snow, which is interpreted as ori…
Heliospheric Compression due to Recent Nearby Supernova Explosions
Jesse A. Miller, Brian D. Fields
The widespread detection of 60Fe in geological and lunar archives provides compelling evidence for recent nearby supernova explosions within pc around 3 Myr and 7 Myr ag…
Implications of the Non-Observation of in Halo Stars for the Primordial Problem
Brian D. Fields, Keith A. Olive
The primordial Lithium Problem is intimately connected to the assumption that observed in metal-poor halo stars retains its primordial abundance, which lies signif…
