44Ti and 56Ni in core-collapse supernovae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We investigate the physical conditions where 44Ti and 56Ni are created in core-collapse supernovae. In this preliminary work we use a series of post-processing network calculations with parametrized expansion profiles that are representative of the wide ...

The Early Evolution of Primordial Pair-Instability Supernovae

open access: yes, 2010
The observational signatures of the first cosmic explosions and their chemical imprint on second-generation stars both crucially depend on how heavy elements mix within the star at the earliest stages of the blast. We present numerical simulations of the

Understanding Core-Collapse Supernovae

open access: yes, 2004
I summarize, in the form of an extended abstract, the ongoing efforts at the University of Arizona (and in collaboration) to understand core-collapse supernovae theoretically. Included are short discussions of 1D (SESAME) and 2D (VULCAN/2D) codes and results, as well as discussions of the possible role of rotation.

SN 2024aecx: A Double-peaked Rapidly Evolving Type IIb Supernova at 11 Mpc

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the results of low-resolution spectroscopic and densely sampled multiband photometric follow-up of supernova (SN) 2024aecx. The SN was discovered in the spiral galaxy NGC 3521 (distance ∼ 11 Mpc) within a day after the explosion.

Towards Realistic Progenitors of Core-Collapse Supernovae

open access: yes, 2011
Two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamical simulations of progenitor evolution of a 23 solar mass star, close to core collapse (about 1 hour, in 1D), with simultaneously active C, Ne, O, and Si burning shells, are presented and contrasted to existing 1D models (

Spectropolarimetric Evolution of SN 2023ixf: An Asymmetric Explosion in a Confined Aspherical Circumstellar Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present complete spectropolarimetric coverage of the Type II supernova (SN) 2023ixf, ranging from 1 to 120 days after explosion. Polarimetry was obtained with the Kast double spectrograph on the Shane 3 m telescope at Lick Observatory.

SN 2014C: A Metamorphic Supernova Exploded in the Intricate and Hydrogen-rich Surroundings

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) SN 2014C, primarily emphasizing the initial month after the explosion at approximately daily intervals.

Long Gamma-Ray Bursts and Type Ic Core Collapse Supernovae Have Similar Locations in Hosts

open access: yes, 2008
When the afterglow fades at the site of a long-duration gamma-ray burst (LGRB), Type Ic supernovae (SN Ic) are the only type of core collapse supernova observed. Recent work found that a sample of LGRB in high-redshift galaxies had different environments

Two Dimensional Core-Collapse Supernova Explosions Aided by General Relativity with Multidimensional Neutrino Transport

open access: yes, 2018
We present results from simulations of core-collapse supernovae in FLASH using a newly-implemented multidimensional neutrino transport scheme and a newly-implemented general relativistic (GR) treatment of gravity.

Probing the Shock Breakout Signal of SN 2024ggi from the Transformation of Early Flash Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present early-time, hour-to-day cadence spectroscopy of the nearby Type II supernova (SN II) 2024ggi, which was discovered at a phase when the SN shock had just emerged from the red supergiant (RSG) progenitor star.
