We report on updated radio imaging observations of the radio remnant of Supernova 1987A (SN 1987A) at 9 GHz, taken with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), covering a 25-year period (1992-2017). We use Fourier modeling of the…
We model the evolution of the spin frequency's second derivative $\ddot\nu$ and the braking index $n$ of radio pulsars with simulations within the phenomenological model of their surface magnetic field evolution, which contains a long-term…
X-Ray bursts (XRB) are powerful thermonuclear events on the surface of accreting neutron stars (NS), where nucleosynthesis of intermediate-mass elements occurs. Their predicted and observed luminosities sometimes exceed Eddington's value,…
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are the outcome of supernovae (SNe, either core-collapse or thermonuclear). The remnant results from the interaction between the stellar ejecta and the ambient medium around the progenitor star. Young SNRs are…
X-ray grating spectra have opened a new window on the nova physics. High signal-to-noise spectra have been obtained for 12 novae after the outburst in the last 13 years with the Chandra and XMM-Newton gratings. They offer the only way to…
Following on our initial absorption-line analysis of fifteen novae spectra we present additional evidence for the existence of two distinct components of novae ejecta having different origins. As argued in Paper I one component is the…
RX J1914.4+2456 is a candidate double-degenerate binary (AM CVn) with a putative 569 s orbital period. If this identification is correct, then it has one of the shortest binary orbital periods known, and gravitational radiation should drive…
We study the non-thermal emission from old shell-type supernova remnants (SNRs) on the frame of a time-dependent model. In this model, the time-dependent non-thermal spectra of both primary electrons and protons as well as secondary…
The study of novae is continued and a self-consistent updated physical model for classical/recurrent novae derived from multi-wavelength observations is presented. In particular, observations of novae support the origin of the optical…
The supernova remnants left behind by Type Ia supernovae provide an excellent opportunity for the study of these enigmatic objects. In a previous work, we showed that it is possible to use the X-ray spectra of young Type Ia supernova…
We report the discovery of a candidate X-ray supernova remnant SRGe J003602.3+605421=G121.1-1.9 in the course of \textit{SRG}/eROSITA all-sky survey. The object is located at (l,b)=(121.1$^\circ$,-1.9$^\circ$), is $\approx36$ arcmin in…
Massive stars, possibly red supergiants, which retain extended hydrogen envelopes until core collapse, produce Type II Plateau (IIP) supernovae. The ejecta from these explosions shock the circumstellar matter originating from the mass loss…
The radio millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038 exhibits complex timing and eclipse behavior. Here we analyze four years' worth of radio monitoring observations of this object. We obtain a long-term timing solution, albeit with large residual…
Long-period radio transients (LPTs) are a new class of radio sources characterized by long spin periods ($P_{\text{spin}}>10^3$ s) and highly variable radio emission. While known magnetars are relatively young ($\tau<10^5$ yrs) with spin…
We investigate the viscous evolution of the accretion disk in 4U 1543-47, a black hole binary system, during the first 30 days after the peak of the 2002 burst by comparing the observed and theoretical accretion rate evolution $\dot M(t)$.…
Type Ia supernovae are triggered by accretion onto a white dwarf from a companion which is most likely Roche lobe-filling at the time of the explosion. The collision between the ejecta and a surviving companion carves out a conical wake,…
Recently several long-period radio transients have been discovered, with strongly polarised coherent radio pulses appearing on timescales between tens to thousands of seconds [1,2]. In some cases the radio pulses have been interpreted as…
We present a 3-dimensional model of supernova remnants (SNRs) where the hydrodynamical evolution of the remnant is modeled consistently with nonlinear diffusive shock acceleration occuring at the outer blast wave. The model includes…
We present the search methods and initial results for transient radio signals in the High Time Resolution Universe (HTRU) Survey. The HTRU survey's single-pulse search, the software designed to perform the search, and a determination of the…
Much excitement surrounds the intense mass loss that seems to take place in some massive stars immediately before core collapse. However, occurring too late, it has a negligible impact on the star's evolution or the final yields, which are…
