What kind of molecules have formed in the ejecta? What is the chemical processes? Chemistry, mixing and isotopologues High angular resolution images Using molecular lines to prove dynamics of the ejecta Clumps and torus Evolution of ring dust Does the interaction of blast winds destroy dust in the ring?

17 Blast wave has passed the circumstellar ring
Feb 2008 June 2014 Material outside of the ring is illuminated by shocks Destruction of ring (Fransson et al. 2015)

18 Warm ring dust in SN 1987A Dust Gemini mid-IR resolved image (green)
Warm dust in the ring Red-supergiant origin (red) (green) Bouchet et al. (2006) Warm ring dust Cold ejecta dust In 2000s, new telescopes have been built, and dust is detected with mid-infrared observations with Gemini and Spitzer Space Telescope. There is a famous ring bright in optical, and mid infrared image, which traces the thermal emission of dust, is found in red surrounding the ring. This ring itself is believed to be formed before the supernova explosion, when the star was red-supergiant phase. So that mid-infrared emission traces dust colliding into the ring, and heated by shocks. This is the spectral energy distribution of supernova 1987A before Herschel launch. Red and green shows the Spitzer observations. A model fit to this was like this blue line, and the flux drops sharply towards the longer wavelength. Herschel detection limits are here, so that the prediction was that supernova 1987A would not be detected with Herschel, which was launched in But fortunately and unexpectedly, we detected SN 1987A at far-infrared wavelength with Herschel. --- Blue dashed line shows the model spectrum to fit the Spitzer data. This model can predict the dust emission in Herschel wavelength range, And the expected flux was much lower than the Herschel detection limit. Ejecta Ring (red supergiant origin)
