Topics in Core-Collapse Supernova Theory: The Formation of Black Holes and the Transport of Neutrinos [PDF]
Core-Collapse Supernovae are one of the most complex astrophysical systems in the universe. They deeply entwine aspects of physics and astrophysics that are rarely side by side in nature.

The role of neutrinos in explosive nucleosynthesis in core collapse supernova models with neutrino transport [PDF]
The problem of core collapse supernova explosions is long standing and attempts to understand the mechanism have been ongoing. On one hand, a full understanding of the underlying mechanism is still pending.

Relativistic Jets in Core-collapse Supernovae [PDF]
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
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]
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]
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]
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
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 ...
