Observations show that at least some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) happen simultaneously
with core-collapse supernovae (SNe), thus linking by a common thread nature's two …

Multi-dimensional fluid flow plays a paramount role in the explosions of massive stars as
core-collapse supernovae. In recent years, three-dimensional (3D) simulations of these …

We update the capabilities of the software instrument Modules for Experiments in Stellar
Astrophysics (MESA) and enhance its ease of use and availability. Our new approach to …

Using a two-dimensional hydrodynamics code (PROMETHEUS), we explore the continued
evolution of rotating helium stars, M α≳ 10 M⊙, in which iron-core collapse does not …

We present the discovery of the Type II supernova SN 2023ixf in M101 and follow-up
photometric and spectroscopic observations, respectively, in the first month and week of its …

We continue our study of the possible production of supernovae and a variety of high-energy
transients by black hole formation in massive stars endowed with rotation: the" collapsar …

We present a detailed report of the connection between long‐duration gamma‐ray bursts
(GRBs) and their accompanying supernovae (SNe). The discussion presented here places …

We examine the case where a circumstellar medium around a supernova is sufficiently
opaque that a radiation-dominated shock propagates in the circumstellar region. The initial …

Massive stars end their short lives in spectacular explosions—supernovae—that synthesize
new elements and drive galaxy evolution. Historically, supernovae were discovered mainly …

Mergers of binaries consisting of two neutron stars, or a black hole and a neutron star, offer a
unique opportunity to study a range of physical and astrophysical processes using two …
