AbstractObservations with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), conducted since 1990, have allowed us to create a “movie” of the evolution of the core-collapse supernova SN 1987A from 3–25 years after the explosion. Critical to understanding the late time evolution of SN 1987A was the successful HST Servicing Mission 4 in May 2009. The repair of the STIS instrument and the installation of the WFC3 imager and COS spectrograph have provided crucial data points for understanding the temporal variability in the physical structure and energy sources for SN 1987A, as well as measurements of the chemical abundances of the ejecta. In this proceeding, I will focus on two topics that have made use of the expanded capability of HST and highlight the importance of access to a UV/optical space observatory for the studies of local supernovae: 1) 2) The decreasing maximum velocity of neutral hydrogen crossing the reverse shock front and the role of soft X-ray/EUV heating in the outer supernova debris and 2) The detection of metals (N4+ and C3+ ions) crossing the reverse shock front and CNO processing in the progenitor star.

AbstractThe reappearance of radio emission from SN 1987A is discussed. We propose a model involving synchrotron radiation from electrons which are accelerated when the expanding supernova shock wave runs into a density jump in the circumstellar material, and which then expand adiabatically.

We present new high radio frequency observations of the Boomerang pulsar wind nebula (PWN) made with the Effelsberg 100-m radio telescope. A comparison with low frequency data from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS; Taylor et al. 2003) reveals a change of the nebula's emission structure with frequency caused by a radial steepening of the radio spectrum above 5 GHz. We also find evidence that the reverse shock of the initial supernova shock wave has driven away or crushed the original PWN which might explain why the current nebula around the pulsar has such a low radio luminosity.
