Cassiopeia

The search for titanium-44 was undertaken by the gamma spectrometer aboard the Gamma-Ray Observatory (GRO). The 1.15 MeV line was detected in the direction of Cassiopeia A and Vela, two recent supernova remnants. Mapping the Galaxy in the 1.15 MeV line will undoubtedly be one of the main objectives of the European satellite INTEGRAL, a unique space-borne experiment in which Erance is deeply involved. ...

In total, 210 and 125 carbon stars are respectively detected in the 180 square-degree area of the Cassiopeia region, and in the 200 square-degree area toward the galactic anticenter direction (figure 1). The mean surface number density is around 1 star per square degree at / 0°, and half at / 5°. 

Bright carbon stars in the Cassiopeia region are classified into the C classification system (Yamashita 1972, 1975) using 103aF plates (AA4500 - 6800 A). Six criteria are extracted from spectral tracings of standard stars. Fifty nine... 

The space distribution in the Cassiopeia region is estimated on the basis of the spectral classification and the absolute magnitudes determined by Mikami (1975). It is shown that the carbon stars are distributed over the galactic plane without strong concentration onto the (Perseus) arm. The number ratio of C4 - C5, C6 -C7, and C8 - C9 stars is nearly 1 0.4 < 0.1.

Bob likes his large bedroom in the museum ship. He looks out the windows at the stars. The more recognizable constellations are unmistakable. Orion s square shoulders and feet. The beautiful zigzagging Cassiopeia. The enigmatic Pleiades. They all remind him of life back on Earth where he studied the con-... 

At nearly the same time, German chemist Karl Auer (Baron von Welsbach 1858—1929) made the same discovery. He suggested different names for the two new elements in ytterbium. He called them cassiopeium and aldebaranium, in honor of the constellation Cassiopeia and the bright star Aldebaran. Today, some German chemists still refer to lutetium as cassiopeium.

This article is organized essentially in the same sequence that a massive star burns successively higher atomic number elements in its core, until it collapses and explodes in a supernova. The introductory part discusses how the rates of thermonuclear reactions in (massive) stars are calculated, what the different classes of reactions are and how the stars (usually) manage to burn their fuels so slowly6. The middle part describes the nuclear physics during the collapse phase of the massive star. The last part describes a few typical examples of what can be learned by optical, IR and X-ray studies about nucleosynthesis and dynamics of explosion in supernovae and supernova remnants such as Cassiopeia A, SN 1987A etc. Only core-collapse supernovae are discussed in these lectures, those that arise from massive stars (e.g. stars more massive than 8Mq with typical solar metallicity at the time they start...

These supernova explosions occurred in Cassiopeia in August 1572 and Ophiuchus in 1604. These two brilliant supernovas were both clearly visible in daylight for up to one and a half years and greatly excited the Rosicrucians as Stars of Bethlehem ushering in the penultimate age of man. This was to be the Golden Age of Aquarius.
