This project investigates the origins of dust in galaxies, particularly focusing on supernova remnants. It aims to measure dust masses and understand the processes that contribute to dust formation in the universe using advanced observational techniques.
The dust content of galaxies is dominated by silicate and carbon grains, whose origin is the subject of much debate - are the dust grains provided mainly by red giant stars, by supernovae from massive stars, or can they grow in the interstellar medium itself from stardust seeds?
My team's recent observations with Herschel of three supernova remnants, Cas A, SN 1987A and the Crab Nebula, have provided direct evidence that supernovae from massive stars can form dust masses in the range of 0.1-0.8…
