چکیده
We present the discovery of several new regions of interaction between the ejecta and equatorial circumstellar ring of SN1987A, an interaction leading to a much expanded development of the supernova remnant. We also trace the development of the first such “hot spot,” discovered in 1997, back to 1995. Later hot spots seem to have emerged by early 1999. We discuss mechanisms for the long delay between the first and later spots. Subject headings: circumstellar matter — ISM:individual (SNR 1987A) — supernova remnants

We present preliminary results of the observational campaign on SN 2002er carried out by the European Supernova Collaboration (ESC). For this supernova the optical coverage from epochs −11 days to +50 days is excellent, both in imaging and spectroscopy. The extinction deduced from the photometry is E(B − V) = 0.35, while ∆m15 = 1.31. In general SN 2002er behaves like a " normal " type Ia supern...

The observation of TeV-gamma rays of π 0 origin from the supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 has revealed the first specific site where protons are accelerated to energies typical of the main component of the cosmic rays. In this letter we calculate the high-energy neutrino flux associated with this source to be at least 40 muon-type neutrinos per kilometer-squared per year. We perform the same c...

The young oxygen-rich supernova remnant E0102-72 in the Small Magel-lanic Cloud has been observed with the High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer of Chandra. The high resolution X-ray spectrum reveals images of the remnant in the light of individual emission lines of oxygen, neon, magnesium and silicon. The peak emission region for hydrogen-like ions lies at larger radial distance from t...
