... It may develop a strong wind which pushes away nearby gas ; it may be so hot and intense that emitted light boils away nearby dust and gas , and it may be so massive that it soon goes supernova and catapults its elements back to the interstellar medium . ...
... da HST, con lo scopo di studiare il supernova rate all'interno di galassie starburst ... determinato, per la prima volta, il supernova rate in funzione della luminosit ...
... Note for your calendar; Hodge 301 contains three red supergiants - stars that are close to the end of their evolution and are about to go supernova, exploding and sending more shocks into the Tarantula. ...
... I'm also working on the study of the Supernova rate in local and higher redshift galaxies, and in the commissioning of instruments at the largest telescopes like Lucifer at LBT. ...
... It is actually a luminous "superbubble" of interstellar gas about 300 light-years in diameter, blown by winds from hot, massive stars and supernova explosions , its interior filled with tenuous hot expanding gas. ...
... A candidate for a supernova in the next few thousand years, Eta Carinae faded from being one of the brightest stars in the sky during the 1800s. Despite intensive study , astronomers remain unsure whether Eta Carinae is part of a binary star system. ...
... M33). 134 newly discovered planetary nebulae were selected, but these observations also contain a large amount of information about other ionised nebulae, such as H II regions, supernova remnants, Be stars, symbiotic binaries, Wolf-Rayet stars, LBVs, etc ...
... The HH-47 system is 1,500 light-years away, and lies at the edge of the Gum Nebula, possibly an ancient supernova remnant which can be seen from Earth's southern hemisphere. ...
