Revisiting Supernova 1987A constraints on dark photons [PDF]
A bstractWe revisit constraints on dark photons with masses below ∼ 100 MeV from the observations of Supernova 1987A. If dark photons are produced in sufficient quantity, they reduce the amount of energy emitted in the form of neutrinos, in conflict with

The Type II-P Supernova 2017eaw: From Explosion to the Nebular Phase [PDF]
The nearby SN 2017eaw is a Type II-P (“plateau”) supernova (SN) showing early-time, moderate CSM interaction. We present a comprehensive study of this SN, including the analysis of high-quality optical photometry and spectroscopy covering the very early ...

The Search for Supernova-produced Radionuclides in Terrestrial Deep-sea Archives [PDF]
An enhanced concentration of 60Fe was found in a deep ocean's crust in 2004 in a layer corresponding to an age of ~2 Myr. The confirmation of this signal in terrestrial archives as supernova-induced and detection of other supernova-produced radionuclides

Improved Cosmological Constraints from New, Old, and Combined Supernova Data Sets [PDF]
We present a new compilation of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), a new data set of low-redshift nearby-Hubble-flow SNe, and new analysis procedures to work with these heterogeneous compilations.

A hot and fast ultra-stripped supernova that likely formed a compact neutron star binary [PDF]
Explosive origin of a binary neutron star Some types of core-collapse supernovae are known to produce a neutron star (NS). A binary NS merger was recently detected from its gravitational wave emission, but it is unclear how such a tight binary system can

Variable G versus the Accelerated Expansion of the Universe
It is shown that the hypothesis of permitting variability of the Newtonian constant G, increasing with the local density of dark matter, implies that there is no need for the introduction of a cosmological constant or accelerated expansion of the ...

Simulations of stripped core-collapse supernovae in close binaries [PDF]
We perform smoothed-particle hydrodynamical simulations of the explosion of a helium star in a close binary system, and study the effects of the explosion on the companion star as well as the effect of the presence of the companion on the supernova ...

Collisional Triggering of Fast Flavor Conversions of Supernova Neutrinos. [PDF]
Fast flavor conversions of supernova neutrinos, possible near the neutrinosphere, depends on an interesting interplay of collisions and neutrino oscillations. Contrary to naïve expectations, the rate of self-induced neutrino oscillations, due to neutrino-

Limit on Supernova Emission in the Brightest Gamma-Ray Burst, GRB 221009A
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the extraordinary gamma-ray burst (GRB) 221009A in search of an associated supernova. Some past GRBs have shown bumps in the optical light curve that coincide with the emergence of supernova ...

How Tycho Brahe’s recordings in 1572 support SN 1572 as a type I(a) supernova
The 450th anniversary of the discovery of the SN 1572 supernova event was celebrated in 2022. A closer look at the historical development of the field of supernova astronomy reveals the scientific importance of Tycho Brahe’s 1572 observations of this ...
