. The Tycho supernova remnant is the result of a type Ia supernova explosion. The explosion was observed by Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe in 1572. More than 400 years later, the ejecta from that explosion has expanded to fill a bubble 55 light-years across. In this image, low-energy X-rays (red) show expanding debris from the supernova explosion and high energy X-rays (blue) show the blast wave тАФ a shell of extremely energetic electrons.

An Ancient Universe: How Astronomers Know the Vast Scale of Cosmic Time . SUPERNOVA 1987a . This Hubble Space Telescope image shows the remnant of a supernova a star that blew itself to pieces. We first saw the light of the explosion on Earth in 1987, and this image was taken in 1994. The remnant of the explosion itself is the blob of stuff in the center; the rings are regions of material ejected by the star earlier in its death throes. ... Return to An Ancient Universe . ...

Next: Radiopulsars as Sources of Up: Cosmic Rays and Evolution Previous: Cosmic Rays and Evolution . Presently, there is little doubt that galactic CR can be generated at rapidly expanding shock fronts produced by supernova explosions. ... Statistical properties of radiopulsars in our Galaxy indicate a formation rate of NS of about 1 per 10-20 years in the present cosmological epoch, while direct astronomical observations have so far not detected supernova explosions at this high rate. ...

Next: M.D. Smith, Research Astronomer Up: Research Previous: J.G. Doyle, Research Astronomer Contents . During the final stages in its life, a star is transformed in ways which remain poorly understood. ... Each transformation is a response to changes in chemical composition in the stellar interior as nuclear reactions convert one source of fuel into another. ... Consequently, the number of stars currently in these late stages of stellar evolution is comparatively small. ...
