Connections Between the Spectroscopy and Photometry of Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play a vital role in the study of many topics of astrophysics. They act as cosmological probes through their well-established nature as precise standardizable candles.

Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]

, 2012
Supernovae are some of the brightest and most energetic explosions in the universe. In the mid- to late-twentieth century, it was discovered that Type Ia supernovae, the brightest and most homogeneous subtype, are a different breed from the rest ...

Physical mechanism of core-collapse supernovae that neutrinos drive

Proceedings of the Japan Academy. Series B, Physical and Biological Sciences
The current understanding of the mechanism of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe), one of the most energetic events in the universe associated with the death of massive stars and the main formation channel of compact objects such as neutron stars and black ...

Supernovae and mass extinctions [PDF]

, 1994
Shklovsky and others have suggested that some of the major extinctions in the geological record might have been triggered by explosions of nearby supernovae.

The Evolution of Compact Binary Star Systems

Living Reviews in Relativity, 2006
We review the formation and evolution of compact binary stars consisting of white dwarfs (WDs), neutron stars (NSs), and black holes (BHs). Binary NSs and BHs are thought to be the primary astrophysical sources of gravitational waves (GWs) within the ...

Application of the Magnetar Engine to an Intermediate-Luminosity Gamma-Ray Burst Associated with the Supernova GRB 201015A/SN 201015A

Universe
We present optical photometry for the afterglow of GRB 201015A, which can be classified as a medium-luminosity gamma-ray burst (Lγ,iso≈2.55×1049ergs−1 ) and the associated underlying supernova SN 201015A.

SNeT: computer-assisted SuperNovae Tracking [PDF]

, 2014
In astronomy, supernovae are stellar explosions whose observation can help shed light on the star formation process and provide reference points for cosmological distances.

The demographics of core-collapse supernovae

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The observational properties of core-collapse supernovae are shaped by the envelopes of their progenitors. In massive binary systems, mass-transfer drastically alters the pre-supernova structures compared to single stars, which leads to a ...

Dust Formation and Destruction in Core Collapse Supernovae Explosions [PDF]

Dust is a crucial component of the Interstellar Medium (ISM) and an important driver in many astrophysical processes. Dust formed from evolved stars increases the metallicity of the ISM, enriching it with heavier elements.
