Nucleosynthesis in Core-Collapse Supernovae and GRB--Metal-Poor Star Connection [PDF]
We review the nucleosynthesis yields of core-collapse supernovae (SNe) for various stellar masses, explosion energies, and metallicities. Comparison with the abundance patterns of metal-poor stars provides excellent opportunities to test the explosion ...

Delayed Flashes from Counter Jets of Gamma Ray Bursts [PDF]
If X-ray flashes are due to the forward jet emissions from gamma ray bursts (GRBs) observed with large viewing angles, we show that a prompt emission from a counter jet should be observed as a delayed flash in the UV or optical band several hours to a ...
