Welcome to the Pulsar - Supernova Remnant Project's home page. ... For pulsars, there is emphasis on searches, precision timing and polarization observations and, for supernova remnants, the emphasis is on understanding the radio brightness distribution and, in particular, the evolution of SNR 1987A. For further information, check out the following pages. ... Pulsars . Supernova remnants . ...

Gas heating and outflows driven by accreting supermassive black holes (quasar phase) may affect the evolution of star formation in their host galaxy. ...

The interstellar medium (ISM) plays a central role in galaxy evolution, providing the fuel for star formation and also hosting the ?fossil record? of the galaxy formation history. ...

... Using the self-consistent 3D hydrodynamical code in Kobayashi et al. (2007) , we simulate the star formation and chemical enrichment history of the Universe. ... We also predict the rates of supernovae and gamma-ray bursts, and the properties of the host galaxies, which will be observed with the ANU's new SkyMapper telescope. ...

Next: Supernova Explosions Up: No Title Previous: X-ray Luminosity Evolution . The origin of cosmic rays (CR) (especially of very high energies, >  eV) until now has been one of the unsolved problems in modern astrophysics. It is unclear as yet whether one universal mechanism of relativistic particle formation in our Galaxy operates or not, and if there are several different mechanisms, what is their relative contribution to CR formation. ... compact X-ray stars in binary systems. ...

Simon Jeffery has used a novel camera attached to the William Herschel Telescope (WHT) to obtain the best light curves ever obtained for pulsating subdwarf B stars. These stars pulsate non-radially in several modes with different frequencies and enable astronomers to establish their overall properties and internal structure with unusual precision. ...

This process is thought to occur in circumstellar disks of gas and dust around young stars on rather short timescales : infrared surveys show that the number of low mass stars with disks drops dramatically for stars older than 10 Myr, suggesting that in order to form large solids before the disk disperses, the growth process has to take place within a few million years. ...
