We analyse behavior of stellar winds of evolved stars and the outcome of SN Ia explosions in the AGN driven relativistic bubble. We find that the expansion of wind shells is efficiently decelerated by the relativistic pressure; their bulk…

We study the outer-shock structure of the oxygen-rich supernova remnant G292.0+1.8, using a deep observation with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. We measure radial variations of the electron temperature and emission measure that we identify…

High ambient interstellar pressure is suggested as a possible factor to explain the ubiquitous observed growth-rate discrepancy for supernova-driven superbubbles and stellar wind bubbles. Pressures of P/k ~ 1e5 cm-3 K are plausible for…
