Most supernova explosions accompany the death of a massive star. These explosions give birth to neutron stars and black holes, and eject solar masses of heavy elements. However, determining the mechanism of explosion has been a half-century journey of great numerical and physical complexity. Here...

In summary, this explosion-energytheoryis consistent with the spherical explosionsof low progenitor masses; the inconsistencywith higher progenitor-mass simulations suggeststhat a theoryfor them must include aspherical dynamics.Key words: Supernovae: general — hydrodynamics — methods: analytical— methods...

I summarize what we have learned about the nature of stars that ultimately explode as core-collapse supernovae from the examination of images taken prior to the explosion. By registering pre-supernova and post-supernova images, usually taken at high resolution using either space-based optical det...
Dense Iron Ejecta and Core-collapse Supernova Explosion in the Young Supernova Remnant G11.2-0.3 We present the results of near-infrared spectroscopic observations of dense\n($\\simgt$ 10$^3$ cm$^{-3}$) iron ejecta in the young core-collapse supernova\... DS Moon,BC Koo,HG Lee,.....
We present results of p-process nucleosynthesis in core collapse supernovae (SNe). We focus on the influence of different explosion energies and metallicities on p-process yields. We find that overproduction factors have a strong sensitivity on peak temperatures and that the distribution of ...
