Supernova explosions can trigger star formation events. The study: “Negative and positive feedback from a supernova remnant with SHREC: a detailed study of the shocked gas in IC443” of G. Cosentino (Chalmers University of Technology) recently appeared on MNRAS

A supernova is the final act of the evolution of a massive star. These spectacular explosions are among the most energetic events we observe in the Universe, and they can seriously impact the surrounding environment. In particular, during the expansions of the supernova remnants, which are the expanding clouds produced by supernova explosions, the process of star formation in the

The interaction between expanding SNR and surrounding clouds. The study: “Modeling the mixed-morphology supernova remnant IC 443. Origin of its complex morphology and X-ray emission” of S. Ustamujic (INAF-OAPA) accepted on A&A

Ricerca

Supernova remnants are clouds in rapid expansion produced by supernova explosions. They are often characterized by a complex morphology, resulting from the interaction between the expanding remnants and surrounding clouds. Supernova remnants also emit radiation on a wide band of the electromagnetic spectrum. This is due to the variety of phenomena occurring in these objects, and because of the different

A peculiar supernova remnant. Published on A&A the study: “Discovery of a jet-like structure with overionized plasma in the SNR IC 443” of E. Greco (OAPA/UNIPA)

Ricerca

Supernova remnants, i.e. the remnant of supernovae explosions, are among the most interesting astronomical objects. In fact, they are not only produced by one of the most violent phenomenon occurring in the Universe (the explosion of a supernova from the collapse of the core of a massive star, i.e. a “core-collapse supernova”, which emits the same energy of 1033 atomic
