Explosion Parameters of SN 2013df and Properties of Its Progenitor Star [PDF]
Type IIb supernovae have only recently been identified as a distinct flavor of core-collapse stellar explosions. These supernovae represent a transitional type between Type II and Type Ib supernovae.

Interstellar extinction from photometric surveys: application to four high-latitude areas
Information on interstellar extinction and dust properties may be obtained from modern large photometric surveys data. Virtual Observatory facilities allow users to make a fast and correct cross-identification of objects from various surveys. It yields a

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.

High Energy Emission of Symbiotic Recurrent Novae: RS Oph and V407 Cyg
Recurrent novae occurring in symbiotic binaries are candidate sources of high energy photons, reaching GeV energies. Such emission is a consequence of particle acceleration leading to pion production.

Arp 299-A: More than "just" a prolific supernova factory [PDF]
We present partial results from our monitoring of the nuclear region of the starburst galaxy IC 694 (=Arp 299-A) at radio wavelengths, aimed at discovering recently exploded core-collapse supernovae, as well as to determine their rate of explosion, which

Abundance Tomography of Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]
Many uncertainties about the physics of Type Ia Supernovae have been revealed in the recent past, and numerous pieces are puzzled together to achieve a complete description of the phenomenon of thermonuclear explosions in the sky. However, very important

The Hubble Diagram: Jump from Supernovae to Gamma-ray Bursts
The Hubble diagram (HD) is a plot that contains a luminous distance modulus presented with respect to the redshift. The distance modulus–redshift relation of the most well-known “standard candles”, the type Ia supernovae (SN), is a crucial tool in ...

Misure di Distanza in Cosmologia e Supernovae di Tipo Ia [PDF]
The observation that Type Ia Supernovae are fainter than expected given their redshift has led to the conclusion that the expansion of the universe is accelerating.

Neutrino Flavor Conversions in High-Density Astrophysical and Cosmological Environments
Despite being a well understood phenomenon in the context of current terrestrial experiments, neutrino flavor conversions in dense astrophysical environments probably represent one of the most challenging open problems in neutrino physics.

The double white dwarf merger model for the progenitors of SN 2021yfj-like events
Context. A new class of supernovae (SNe) with prominent narrow emission features of silicon (Si), sulfur (S), and argon (Ar) has recently been reported, i.e., SN 2021yfj-like events (so-called SNe Ien). Their progenitor origin is currently unknown.
