Supernovae of Type II occur at the end of the evolution of massive stars. The phenomenon
begins when the iron core of the star exceeds a Chandrasekhar mass. The collapse of that …

Supernova 1987A ADS Classic is now deprecated. It will be completely retired in October
2019. This page will automatically redirect to the new ADS interface at that point. SAO/NASA …

Rapid progress has been made during recent years in the understanding of the flavour
oscillations that occur as neutrinos traverse through supernova. The previous paradigm has …

Supernova remnants are beautiful astronomical objects that are also of high scientific
interest, because they provide insights into supernova explosion mechanisms, and because …

The role of neutrino heating and convective processes in the explosion mechanism of Type-
II supernovae is investigated by one-and two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of …

Dust grains play a crucial role in the formation and evolution history of stars and galaxies in
the early universe. We investigate the formation of dust grains in the ejecta of Population III …

JCW had long wanted to write a new monograph on supernovae. Despite an immense
explosion in the literature and many review articles, there had not been one since that of …

We report far-infrared and submillimeter observations of supernova 1987A, the star whose
explosion was observed on 23 February 1987 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a galaxy …

Two-dimensional hydrodynamic calculations of SN 1987A (Arnett, Fryxell, and Muller 1989)
have been confirmed and extended. A systematic sequence of calculations, differing only in …

When I started working on my PhD project on X-ray spectroscopy of supernova remnants in
1995, one of the things that I missed was a good textbook covering the various aspects of …
