JWST observations of the Ring Nebula (NGC 6720): I. Imaging of the rings, globules, and arcs

R. Wesson, Mikako Matsuura, Albert A. Zijlstra +18

We present JWST images of the well-known planetary nebula NGC 6720 (the Ring Nebula), covering wavelengths from 1.6m to 25 m. The bright shell is strongly fragmented with som…

Evidence for late-time dust formation in the ejecta of supernova SN~1995N from emission-line asymmetries

R. Wesson, A. M. Bevan, M. J. Barlow +4

We present a study of the dust associated with the core-collapse supernova SN~1995N. Infrared emission detected 14--15 years after the explosion was previously attributed to therma…

Ejecta, Rings, and Dust in SN 1987A with JWST MIRI/MRS

O. C. Jones, P. J. Kavanagh, M. J. Barlow +31

Supernova (SN) 1987A is the nearest supernova in 400 years. Using the {\em JWST} MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrograph, we spatially resolved the ejecta, equatorial ring (ER) a…

Far-infrared Polarization of the Supernova Remnant Cassiopeia A with SOFIA HAWC+

Jeonghee Rho, Aravind P. Ravi, Le Ngoc Tram +8

We present polarization observations of the young supernova remnant (SNR) Cas A using the High-resolution Airborne Wideband Camera-Plus (HAWC+) instrument onboard the Stratospheric…

JWST NIRSpec observations of Supernova 1987A -- from the inner ejecta to the reverse shock

J. Larsson, C. Fransson, B. Sargent +23

We present initial results from JWST NIRSpec integral field unit observations of the nearby Supernova (SN) 1987A. The observations provide the first spatially-resolved spectroscopy…

Mid-infrared imaging of Supernova 1987A

Mikako Matsuura, Roger Wesson, Richard G. Arendt +9

At a distance of 50 kpc, Supernova 1987A is an ideal target to study how a young supernova (SN) evolves in time. Its equatorial ring, filled with material expelled from the progeni…
