Rare Supernova Explosion Discovered By Indian Astronomers Traced To Hottest Set Of Stars ‘Wolf-Rayet’ 2 hours, 25 minutes There’s some new exciting news for all space nerds out there! A rare supernova explosion has been discovered by Indian astronomers who have traced it to one of the hottest kinds of stars in our universe called “Wolf-Rayet”. These stars are considered extremely intense as they do not last very long. Because of this reason, it’s hard to spot more than a few of these stars per galaxy except in the Wolf-Rayet galaxies. What Exactly Is A Wolf...

Astronomers trace rare supernova explosion to Wolf-Rayet stars Tracking of certain types of massive luminous supernovae explosion can help probe these stars that remain an enigma for scientists Tuesday April 6, 2021 8:10 PM, IANS [Representative image.] New Delhi: Tracking a rare supernova explosion, Indian astronomers have traced it to one of the hottest kind of stars, called Wolf-Rayet stars or WR stars.

NEW DELHI: A team of four Indian astronomers, along with international collaborators, has tracked a rare supernova explosion and traced it to one of the hottest kind of stars called Wolf–Rayet stars (WR stars), which are highly luminous objects a thousand times that of the Sun. WR stars are massive stars and strip their outer hydrogen envelope, which is associated with the fusion of Helium and other elements in the massive core. Tracking of certain types of massive luminous supernova explosion can help probe these stars that remain an enigma for scientists from across the world. The four ...

119 New Delhi, April 6 Indian astronomers have tracked a rare supernova explosion and traced it to one of the hottest kinds of stars called 'Wolf-Rayet' or WR stars.   Supernovae (SNe) are highly energetic explosions in the universe releasing an enormous amount of energy. Long-term monitoring of these transients opens the door to understand the nature of the exploding star as well as the explosion properties. It can also help enumerate the number of massive stars, the Department of Science and Technology (DST) said in a statement. The rare Wolf–Rayet stars are highly luminous objects a t...
