The X-Ray remnant of SN 1987A

TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution Chandra observations of the remnant of SN 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud are presented, with high angular resolution of the Chandra X-Ray Observatory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Swift x-ray observations of classical novae

TL;DR: This work analyzed all the observations of classical novae from the Swift archive up to 2006 June 30 and found 4 nondetections, 3 weak sources, and 5 strong sources, implying ongoing nuclear burning on the white dwarf surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Very early optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts: evidence for relative paucity of detection

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss possible mechanisms and their feasibility for explaining the apparent lack of early optical emission, including foreground extinction, circumburst absorption, Lyα blanketing and absorption due to high redshift, low density environments, rapid temporal decay, and intrinsic weakness of the reverse shock.
