Refueling the Magic Furnace: Kilonova 2017 Rewrites the Story of Element Origins
For more than half a century, we have understood element creation in the stars—described in Marcus Chown’s colorful image as “the magic furnace.” From 1958 until 2017, supernova explosions were thought to be the primary site of element creation above ...

Historical Supernovae and Supernova Remnants [PDF]
The oldest historical supernova (SN), recorded by ancient Chinese in 14th Century B.C. on pieces of tortoise shells or bones, is identified with the aid of modern space γ-ray observations. Hard X-rays with energy up to 20 keV were observed from IC 443 by the X-ray satellite Ginga. We infer from these observations the age of IC 443 is ∼ 1000 — 1400 yrs.

Confined dense circumstellar material surrounding a regular type II supernova [PDF]
With the advent of new wide-field, high-cadence optical transient surveys, our understanding of the diversity of core-collapse supernovae has grown tremendously in the last decade.

A Multidimensional Multicomponent Gas Dynamic with the Neutrino Transfer in Gravitational Collapse
The self-consistent problem of gravitational collapse is solved using 2D gas dynamics with taking into account the neutrino transfer in the flux-limited diffusion approximation.

Neutrinos from Supernovas and Supernova Remnants [PDF]
Supernovae (SN) and supernova remnants (SNR) have key roles in galaxies, but their physical descriptions is still incomplete. Thus, it is of interest to study neutrino radiation to understand SN and SNR better. We will discuss: (1) The ~10 MeV thermal neutrinos that arise from core collapse SN, that were observed for SN1987A, and can be seen with ...

Is there a supernova bound on axions? [PDF]
We present a critical assessment of the SN1987A supernova cooling bound on axions and other light particles. Core-collapse simulations used in the literature to substantiate the bound omitted from the calculation the envelope exterior to the proto ...

Properties and Composition of Magnetized Nuclei
The properties and mass distribution of the ultramagnetized atomic nuclei which arise in heavy-ion collisions and magnetar crusts, during Type II supernova explosions and neutron star mergers are analyzed.

Searches for Violation of CPT Symmetry and Lorentz Invariance with Astrophysical Neutrinos
Neutrinos are a powerful tool for searching physics beyond the standard model of elementary particles. In this review, we present the status of the research on charge-parity-time (CPT) symmetry and Lorentz invariance violations using neutrinos emitted ...

The Carnegie Supernova Project: Absolute Calibration and the Hubble Constant [PDF]
We present an analysis of the final data release of the Carnegie Supernova Project I, focusing on the absolute calibration of the luminosity–decline rate relation for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) using new intrinsic color relations with respect to the ...

Entropy Generation Due to the Heat Transfer for Evolving Spherical Objects
Heat transfer accompanying entropy generation for the evolving mini and microbubbles in solution is discussed based on the explicit solutions for the hydrodynamic equations related to the bubble motion. Even though the pressure difference between the gas
