Evolving into a remnant: optical observations of SN 1978K at three decades
(Oxford Univ Press, 2016)
We present new optical observations of the supernova SN 1978K, obtained in 2007 and 2014 with the Very Large Telescope. We discover that the supernova has not faded significantly, even more than three decades after its ...
A revised planetary nebula luminosity function distance to NGC 628 using muse
(IOP Publishing, 2017)
Distance uncertainties plague our understanding of the physical scales relevant to the physics of star formation in extragalactic studies. The planetary nebulae luminosity function (PNLF) is one of very few techniques that ...
The southern molecular environment of SNR G18.8+0.3 (Research Note)
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
Aims. In a previous paper we investigated the molecular environment toward the eastern border of the supernova remnant (SNR) G18.8+0.3. Continuing with the study of the surroundings of this SNR, we now focus on its southern ...
On-sky Performance of the CLASS Q-band Telescope
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2019)
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is mapping the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at large angular scales (2 < ℓ ≲ 200) in search of a primordial gravitational wave B-mode signal ...
A fast evolving luminous transient discovered by K2/Kepler
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018)
For decades, optical time-domain searches have been tuned to find ordinary supernovae, which rise and fall in brightness over a period of weeks. Recently, supernova searches have improved their cadences and a handful of ...
The peculiar type II supernova 1997D: A case for a very low Ni-56 mass
(UNIV CHICAGO PRESS, 1998-05-10)
SN 1997D in NGC 1536 is possibly the least luminous and energetic Type II supernova discovered to date. The entire light curve is subluminous, never reaching M-v = -14.65. The radioactive tail follows the Co-56 decay slope. ...
Studying the kinematics of the giant star-forming region 30 Doradus
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
We present high-quality VLT-FLAMES optical spectroscopy of the nebular gas in the giant star-forming region 30 Doradus. In this
paper, the first of a series, we introduce our observations and discuss the main kinematic ...
The microphysics of collisionless shock waves
(IOP Publishing, 2016-04)
Collisionless shocks, that is shocks mediated by electromagnetic processes, are customary in space physics and in astrophysics. They are to be found in a great variety of objects and environments: magnetospheric and ...
THE HERschel inventory of the agents of galaxy evolution in the magellanic clouds, a herschel open time key program
(The American Astronomical Society, 2013)
We present an overview of the HERschel Inventory of The Agents of Galaxy Evolution (HERITAGE) in the
Magellanic Clouds project, which is a Herschel Space Observatory open time key program. We mapped the Large
Magellanic ...
