Magnetorotational Mechanism of Supernova Type II Explosion

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2005
SummaryResults of 2D simulations of the magnetorotational mechanism of supernova type II are presented. Amplification of toroidal magnetic field of the star due to differential rotation of the star leads to the transformation of the rotational (gravitational) energy to the energy of the supernova explosion. In our simulation the energy of the explosion

Physical properties of long-rising type II supernovae

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The supernova (SN) 1987A, with its long-rising (≳40 days) light curve, defines a rare subclass of type II SNe known as 1987A-like events. Representing only ∼1–3% of all core-collapse SNe and often found in low-metallicity environments, their ...

SN 2024abfl: A Flat-plateau, Low-luminosity Type IIP Supernova with Early Circumstellar Matter Interaction

The Astrophysical Journal
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2024abfl, a low-luminosity Type IIP supernova (LLSN) discovered shortly after explosion. The transient reached a peak absolute magnitude of M _V  = −14.9 and exhibited an extended, flat plateau ...

Spectropolarimetry of Type II supernovae

Astronomy & Astrophysics
The explosion processes of supernovae (SNe) are imprinted in their explosion geometries. The recent discovery of several highly aspherical core-collapse SNe is significant, and studying these is regarded as being crucial in order to understand the underlying explosion mechanism.

Final Moments. III. Explosion Properties and Progenitor Constraints of CSM-interacting Type II Supernovae

The Astrophysical Journal
We present analysis of the plateau and late-time phase properties of a sample of 39 Type II supernovae (SNe II) that show narrow, transient, high-ionization emission lines (i.e., “IIn-like”) in their early-time spectra from interaction with confined ...

Discovery of a Dusty Yellow Supergiant Progenitor for the Type IIb SN 2017gkk

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Type IIb supernovae are an important subclass of stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe), which show H lines only at early times. Their progenitors are believed to contain a low-mass H envelope before explosion. This work reports the discovery of a progenitor
