EWOCS VII : Unveiling the faint diffuse X-ray emission in Westerlund 1
Albacete-Colombo J. F., Andersen M., De Becker M. +16
Westerlund 1 (Wd 1) is the closest supermassive star cluster to the Sun, with over 100,000 stars of all spectral types down to brown dwarfs. This population strongly heats the surr…
Extreme anisotropies in deep layers of an exploding star: overabundance of Cr in the northeastern jet of Cassiopeia A
Vincenzo Sapienza, Marco Miceli, Masaomi Ono +5
Core-collapse supernovae drive nucleosynthesis under extreme thermodynamic conditions, and complex mechanisms are at work prompting the transport of heavy elements from deep stella…
Multi-wavelength study of the high Galactic latitude supernova remnant candidate G118.4+37.0 associated with the Calvera pulsar
Emanuele Greco, Michela Rigoselli, Sandro Mereghetti +4
The candidate supernova remnant (SNR) G118.4+37.0 (Calvera's SNR), discovered as a faint radio ring at high Galactic latitude and coincident with extended Fermi/LAT gamma-ray emiss…
Measuring the initial mass of 44Ti in SN 1987A through the 44Sc emission line
Roberta Giuffrida, Marco Miceli, Emanuele Greco +7
Context. Deriving the mass and large-scale asymmetries of radioactive isotopes offers valuable insights into the complex phases of a supernova explosion. Important examples are $^{…
Tracing the ejecta structure of SN 1987A: Insights and diagnostics from 3D MHD simulations
S. Orlando, M. Miceli, M. Ono +14
Supernova (SN) 1987A provides a unique window into the aftermath of a massive stellar explosion, offering key insights into the ejecta's morphology, composition, explosion mechanis…
Origin of holes and rings in the Green Monster of Cassiopeia A: Insights from 3D magnetohydrodynamic simulations
S. Orlando, H. -T. Janka, A. Wongwathanarat +10
[Abridged] Cassiopeia A (Cas A) provides a unique opportunity to study supernova (SN) dynamics and interactions with the circumstellar medium (CSM). Recent JWST observations reveal…
