Relativistic Jets in Core-collapse Supernovae [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2019 Abstract After decades of extensive research the mechanism driving core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) is still unclear. One common mechanism is a neutrino-driven outflow, but others have been proposed. Among those, a long-standing idea is that jets play an important role in supernova (SN) explosions. Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that accompany “

The Iron Yield of Core-collapse Supernovae
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present a systematic analysis of 191 stripped-envelope supernovae (SE SNe), aimed at computing their ^56 Ni masses from the luminosity in their radioactive tails ( ${M}_{\mathrm{Ni}}^{\mathrm{tail}}$ ) and/or in their maximum light, and the mean ^56 ...

Progenitors of Core-Collapse Supernovae [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2009 Knowledge of the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae is a fundamental component in understanding the explosions. The recent progress in finding such stars is reviewed. The minimum initial mass that can produce a supernova (SN) has converged to 8 ± 1 M⊙from direct detections of red supergiant progenitors of II-P SNe and the most massive white dwarf ...

Core-Collapse Supernova neutrino detection with KM3NeT [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019 Core Collapse Supernovae (CCSNe) are explosive phenomena that may occur at the end of the life of massive stars, releasing over 99% of the energy through neutrino emission.

Core-collapse Supernovae [PDF]
Proceedings of VI European Summer School on Experimental Nuclear Astrophysics — PoS(ENAS 6), 2013 Marking the inevitable death of a massive star, and the birth of a neutron star or black hole, core-collapse supernovae bring together physics at a wide range in spatial scales, from kilometer-sized hydrodynamic motions (growing to gigameter scale) down to femtometer scale nuclear reactions. Carrying 10$$^{51}$$ ergs of kinetic energy and a rich-mix of

Computational models of stellar collapse and core-collapse supernovae
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2009 Core-collapse supernovae are among Nature's most energetic events. They mark the end of massive star evolution and pollute the interstellar medium with the life-enabling ashes of thermonuclear burning. Despite their importance for the evolution of galaxies and life in the universe, the details of the core-collapse supernova explosion mechanism remain ...

Multiwavelength View of Circumstellar Interaction in Supernovae
UniverseThe interaction of post-explosion supernova ejecta with the surrounding circumstellar medium creates emissions across the electromagnetic spectrum. Since the circumstellar medium is created by the mass lost from the progenitor star, it carries tell-tale ...

Hydrodynamic Mixing of Accretion Disk Outflows in Collapsars: Implications for r-process Signatures
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The astrophysical environments capable of triggering heavy-element synthesis via rapid neutron capture (the r -process) remain uncertain. While binary neutron star mergers (NSMs) are known to forge r -process elements, certain rare supernovae (SNe) have ...
