Abstract:
Context. The inclusion of molecular physics is an important piece that tends to be missing from the puzzle when modeling the spectra of supernovae (SNe). Molecules have both a direct impact on the spectra, particularly in the infrared, and an indirect one as a result of their influence on certain physical conditions, such as temperature. Aims. In this paper, we aim to investigate molecular formation and non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) cooling, with a particular focus on CO, the most commonly detected molecule in supernovae. We also aim to determine the dependency of supernova chemis

Abstract:
The rate of supernovae (SNe) is a key number linking stellar evolution with galaxy evolution models. Stellar evolution theories predict life times, fates and nucleosysntesis yields of individual stars which are used to predicted the galaxy chemical evolution once the star formation history in the galaxy is known. Constraints to the models are the present chemical content of galaxies but also the present observed SN rate (Arimoto & Yoshi, 1987; Ferrini & Poggianti, 1993; Matteucci, 1994; Renzini et al., 1993; Bressan et al., 1994; Elbaz et al., 1995).

AbstractThe exceptional brightness of SN 1987A has provided a unique opportunity to probe intervening gas clouds in the disk and halo of our Galaxy and in the Large Magellanic Cloud, as well as intergalactic matter between the two. At the AAO we have exploited this opportunity in two ways: in searches for very weak interstellar features requiring exceptionally high signal-to-noise ratio spectra, and in recording known interstellar lines with unprecedentedly high spectral resolution. We are also monitoring photographically the evolution of the light-echoes to map the three-dimensional distribut

AbstractRecent far-infrared (FIR) observations have revealed the presence of freshly formed dust with the masses exceeding 0.1 M⊙ in young remnants of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) such as SN 1987A and Cassiopeia A. Meanwhile, dust masses derived from near- to mid-infrared (N/MIR) observations of CCSNe a few years after explosions are on the order of 10−5–10−3M⊙. Here, we demonstrate that such small dust masses as seen from N/MIR observations would not necessarily reflect the formation history of dust but could be just limited by the luminosity of the SN that can heat up dust formed in the

Observation of supernovae (SN) through their neutrino emission is a fundamental point to understand both SN dynamics and neutrino physical properties. JUNO is a 20kton liquid scintillator detector, under construction in Jiangmen, China. The main aim of the experiment is to determine neutrino mass hierarchy by precisely measuring the energy spectrum of reactor electron antineutrinos. However due to its properties, JUNO has the capability of detecting a high statistics of SN events too. Existing data from SN neutrino consists only of 24 events coming from the SN 1987A,the detection of a SN burst

An early burst of energetic radiation is expected from a supernova at the time of shock breakout. This emission has not been directly observed but has been inferred from the photoionization around SN 1987A. X-ray emission has been detected from core-collapse supernovae in the days to years after the explosion as they interact with their circumstellar winds. Young Galactic supernova remnants provide the possibility of determining the composition structure of the ejecta through X-ray spectroscopy. An exciting finding for older remnants is that a number of remnants that appear to be interacting w

Abstract:
Core collapse supernovae (SN) are the final stages of stellar evolution in massive stars during which the central region collapses, forms a neutron star (NS), and the outer layers are ejected. Recent explosion scenarios assumed that the ejection is due to energy deposition by neutrinos into the envelope, but detailed models do not produce powerful explosions. There is new and mounting evidence for an asphericity and, in particular, for axial symmetry in several supernovae which may be hard to reconcile within the spherical picture. This evidence includes the observed high polarization and its

AbstractFostered by the possibilities of multi-dimensional computational modeling, in particular the advent of three-dimensional (3D) simulations, our understanding of the neutrino-driven explosion mechanism of core-collapse supernovae (SNe) has experienced remarkable progress over the past decade. First self-consistent, first-principle models have shown successful explosions in 3D, and even failed cases may be cured by moderate changes of the microphysics inside the neutron star (NS), better grid resolution, or more detailed progenitor conditions at the onset of core collapse, in particular l

At its peak, SN 1993J was one of the brightest supernovae in this century, and it is being studied more thoroughly than any supernova except SN 1987A. It is proving to be similar to the transition object SN 1987K, which metamorphosed from being a hydrogen-rich Type II near peak to having a hydrogen-deficient nebular phase. SN 1993J has been observed throughout the electromagnetic spectrum and with optical spectropolarimetry. It is interacting with a dense circumstellar nebula and is generating radio and X-ray flux, but it has probably not been detected in gamma rays. The photometric and spectr

Context. It has been suggested that some supernovae (SNe) may be powered by a magnetar formed at the moment of the explosion. While this scenario has mostly been applied to hydrogen-free events, it may also be possible for hydrogen-rich objects. Aims. We aim to explore the effect of including a magnetar on the light curves of supernovae with H-rich progenitors. Methods. We have applied a version of our one-dimensional local thermodynamic equilibrium radiation hydrodynamics code that takes into account the relativistic motion of the ejecta caused by the extra energy provided by the magnetar.

The need to replenish the reservoir of interstellar dust grains that are continuously being destroyed in the interstellar medium, and the presence of isotopic anomalies in meteorites, suggest that supernovae may be important sources of interstellar dust. Infrared observations of supernovae or their unmixed ejecta may provide the first direct evidence for newly-formed grains in this environment.

We present a historical view about registration of the neutrino signal from supernova SN 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud by the BAKSAN liquid scintillator detector and by the two water Cherenkov detectors — Kamiokande-II and IMB. All three detectors observed a total neutrino signal of 24 events at 7:35 UT 23 February, 1987. I will concentrate mostly about the BAKSAN supernova group analysis of the neutrino signal, which was already done in the years 1987 and 1988. The results of this ana

First, modern ideas about the physics of the SN explosion are briefly discussed: the explosive thermonuclear burning in degenerate white dwarfs resulting in Type Ia SNe and the gravitational collapse of stellar cores giving rise to other types of SNe (Ib, Ic, IIL, IIP). Next, we survey some global properties of the SNe of different types: the total explosion energy distribution of various components

With the recent Supernova 1987a in the LMC, new and interesting possibilities have arisen for the solution of a problem relating to the explosion mechanism of supernovae. The presupernova was probably a B3Ia, the blue supergiant, and not a red giant as it was earlier thought likely. Calculations of the evolution, which have been made recently, show that the loss of hydrodynamical stability may be connected with carbon burning in the stellar core during the blue giant stage. This loss of stability of the CO core is the main factor in our explanation of the recent event of SN 1987a.Before we con
