Local Environments of Low-redshift Supernovae

Published in ApJ, 2021

Where do supernovae explode in galaxies? Turns out, core-collapse supernovae track the star formation main sequence, and are preferrentially located in star-forming regions of galaxies. Type Ia supernovae are found in quiescent regions of galaxies and explode in both star-forming and “red-and-dead” galaxies. This was a fun first research project that culminated in my undergraduate thesis.

Physical Conditions of the Ionized Superwind in NGC 253 with VLT/MUSE

Published in ApJ, 2025

What is the physical state of ionized gas in galactic winds? In NGC 253, a prototypical starburst with a galactic wind, we found that the ionized gas is approaching speeds of 500 km/s, dominated by shock ionization, and is the product of a mere 2% starburst efficiency. This was my first project in graduate school, and culminated in the equivalent of my Master’s thesis.
