We investigate the dust associated with the supernova remnant (SNR) N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) as observed with the Herschel Space Observatory. N49 is unusually bright because of an interaction with a molecular cloud along its eastern edge. We have used PACS and SPIRE to measure the far IR flux densities of the entire SNR and of a bright region on the eastern edge of the SNR where the SNR shock is encountering the molecular cloud. ...

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 . ...

Astronomers usually measure the flux of an object by collecting light with a telescope, sending it through a known filter, and then determining the power. ... But astronomers usually give their photometric results in terms of magnitudes. ... Astronomers define an absolute magnitude that is independent of the distance of a star and only depends on the intrinsic properties of the object: the absolute magnitude is the magnitude the star would have if it were 10 parsecs away from the Earth. ...
