  • Portrait of a Dramatic Stellar Crib 21 December 2006
    Portrait of a dramatic stellar crib 21 December 2006 most massive stars known. The nebula owes its name to the arrangement of its brightest patches of nebulosity, that somewhat resemble the legs of a spider. They extend from a central 'body' where a cluster of hot stars (designated 'R136') illuminates and shapes the nebula. This name, of the biggest spiders on the Earth, is also very fitting in view of the gigantic proportions of the celestial nebula - it measures nearly 1,000 light-years across and extends over more than one third of a degree: almost, but not quite, the size of the full Moon. If it were in our own Galaxy, at the distance of another stellar nursery, the Orion Nebula (1,500 light-years away), it would cover one quarter of the sky and even be visible in daylight. One square degree image of the Tarantula Nebula and its surroundings. The spidery nebula is seen in the upper- center of the image. Slightly to the lower-right, a web of filaments harbors the famous supernova SN 1987A (see below). Many other reddish nebulae are visible in the image, as well as a cluster of young stars on the left, known as NGC 2100. Credit: ESO Known as the Tarantula Nebula for its spidery appearance, the 30 Doradus complex is a monstrous stellar factory. It is the largest emission nebula in the sky, and can be seen far down in the southern sky at a distance of about 170,000 light- years, in the southern constellation Dorado (The Swordfish or the Goldfish).

The observed two-degree field includes the massive 30 Doradus star-forming region, the environs of SN1987A, and a number of star-forming complexes to the south of 30 Dor. These are the first classifications for the majority (203) of the stars and include eleven double-lined spectroscopic binaries. The sample also includes the first examples of early OC-type spectra (AAΩ 30 Dor 248 and 280), distinguished by the weakness of their nitrogen spectra and by C IV λ4658 emission. We propose that these stars have relatively unprocessed CNO abundances compared to morphologically normal O-type stars, indicative of an earlier evolutionary phase. From analysis of observations obtained on two consecutive nights, we present radial-velocity estimates for 233 stars, finding one apparent single-lined binary and nine (>3σ) outliers compared to the systemic velocity; the latter objects could be runaway stars or large-amplitude binary systems and further spectroscopy is required to investigate their nature.

Am Ende der Sternentwicklung entstehen Weiße Zwerge, Neutro- nensterne, Schwarze L¨ocher sowie Supernova-Ub¨ erreste, die aufgrund hoher Temper- aturen R¨ontgenstrahlung emittieren.

    A Chandra/ACIS Study of 30 Doradus I. Superbubbles and Supernova Remnants Leisa K. Townsley1, Patrick S. Broos1, Eric D. Feigelson1, Bernhard R. Brandl2, You-Hua Chu3, Gordon P. Garmire1, George G. Pavlov1 ABSTRACT We present an X-ray tour of diffuse emission in the 30 Doradus star-forming complex in the Large Magellanic Cloud using high-spatial-resolution X-ray images and spatially-resolved spectra obtained with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer aboard the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The dominant X-ray feature of the 30 Doradus nebula is the intricate network of diffuse emission generated by interacting stellar winds and supernovae working together to create vast superbubbles filled with hot plasma. We construct maps of the region showing variations 21 −2 in plasma temperature (T = 3–9 million degrees), absorption (NH = 1–6×10 cm ), and 31 −1 −2 absorption-corrected X-ray surface brightness (SX = 3–126×10 ergs s pc ). Enhanced images reveal the pulsar wind nebula in the composite supernova remnant N157B and the Chandra data show spectral evolution from non-thermal synchrotron emission in the N157B core to a thermal plasma in its outer regions. In a companion paper we show that R136, the central massive star cluster, is resolved at the arcsecond level into almost 100 X-ray sources. Through X-ray studies of 30 Doradus the complete life cycle of such a massive stellar cluster can be revealed. Subject headings: HII regions − stars: winds, outflows − galaxies: star clusters − ISM: individual (30 Doradus) − supernova remnants − X-rays: ISM 1.

We present the XMM–Newton first light image, taken in January 2000 with the EPIC pn camera during the instrument’s commissioning phase, when XMM–Newton was pointing towards the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The field is rich in different kinds of X-ray sources: point sources, supernova remnants (SNRs) and diffuse X-ray emission from LMC interstellar gas. The observations are of unprecedented sensitivity, reaching a few 1032 erg/s for point sources in the LMC.

  • Hubble's Bubbles in the Tarantula Nebula 9 October 2017
    Image: Hubble's bubbles in the Tarantula Nebula 9 October 2017 combined effect of two supernovae—a more recent explosion has pierced the expanding shell of material created by an older explosion. The nebula's especially striking appearance is suspected to be due to a fortuitous viewing angle; the honeycomb effect of the circular shells may not be visible from another viewpoint. Provided by NASA Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, Acknowledgements: Judy Schmidt (Geckzilla) At a distance of just 160,000 light-years, the Large Magellanic Cloud is one of the Milky Way's closest companions. It is also home to one of the largest and most intense regions of active star formation known to exist anywhere in our galactic neighborhood—the Tarantula Nebula. This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image shows both the spindly, spidery filaments of gas that inspired the region's name, and the intriguing structure of stacked "bubbles" that forms the so- called Honeycomb Nebula (to the lower left). The Honeycomb Nebula was found serendipitously by astronomers using ESO's New Technology Telescope to image the nearby SN1987A, the closest observed supernova to Earth for more than 400 years. The nebula's strange bubble-like shape has baffled astronomers since its discovery in the early 1990s. Various theories have been proposed to explain its unique structure, some more exotic than others. In 2010, a group of astronomers studied the nebula and, using advanced data analysis and computer modelling, came to the conclusion that its unique appearance is likely due to the 1 / 2 APA citation: Image: Hubble's bubbles in the Tarantula Nebula (2017, October 9) retrieved 27 September 2021 from https://phys.org/news/2017-10-image-hubble-tarantula-nebula.html This document is subject to copyright.

Gosset B4000-Liège (Belgium) Dépôt légal : D/2005/0480/95 Foreword About 35 astronomers including many experts in the field of massive stars attended the afternoon sessions of the JENAM 2005 workshop —Massive Stars and High-Energy Emission in OB Associations“. In addition to the two plenary talks by Dr Ian Stevens and Prof Thierry Montmerle, two invited reviews by Prof Artemio Herrero and Dr Martin Guerrero as well as 12 contributed talks and nine posters were presented during the workshop. A good number of new exciting results obtained with modern high-resolution optical spectrographs and/or high-energy instruments onboard XMM-Newton, Chandra and INTEGRAL were presented and new questions were raised. Several contributions were devoted to non-thermal phenomena associated with a subset of the massive stars. Many results presented at the workshop seem to demonstrate that non-thermal radio emission of early-type stars is a signature of colliding winds in binary systems. W hile this was already established for W olf-Rayet stars, it becomes now more and more obvious for O stars as well. In this context, the participants emphasized the interest to search for non-thermal X-ray and G- ray emissions from massive binaries. Such a hard X-ray œ soft G-ray emission could also arise from the collision of a supernova remnant with a stellar wind.
