Planets around pulsars
Can a planet survive the supernova explosion?
Red giant phase: the planet may be engulfed by the star
A. Wolszczan & D. Frail, 1992
Supernova explosion:
• Mass loss: if more than half the stellar mass is lost, the planet escapes
• Shock wave: if Ekinetic » Ebinding, the planet is destroyed
Ekinetic = ERp2/(4D2) with E=1051 ergs
Ebinding = -GMp2/Rp = -10-2 Ec → ???
