Type Ia Supernova: Calculations of Turbulent Flames Using the Linear Eddy Model

S. E. Woosley, A. R. Kerstein, V. Sankaran +1

The nature of carbon burning flames in Type Ia supernovae is explored as they interact with Kolmogorov turbulence. One-dimensional calculations using the Linear Eddy Model of Kerst…

Intrinsic properties of a complete sample of HETE-2 gamma-ray bursts. A measure of the GRB rate in the Local Universe

A. Pélangeon, J. -L. Atteia, Y. E. Nakagawa +32

Aims: Taking advantage of the forthcoming Catalog of the HETE-2 mission, the aim of this paper is to evaluate the main properties of HETE-2 GRBs - the E_peak, the T_90 and the E_is…

Mixing in Zero and Solar Metallicity Supernovae

C. C. Joggerst, S. E. Woosley, Alexander Heger

Two-dimensional simulations of mixing and fall back in non-rotating massive stars have been carried out using realistic initial models for the presupernova star and assuming standa…

Probing Shock Breakout with Serendipitous GALEX Detections of Two SNLS Type II-P Supernovae

Suvi Gezari, Luc Dessart, Stephane Basa +13

We report the serendipitous detection by GALEX of fast (<1 day) rising (>1 mag) UV emission from two Type II plateau (II-P) supernovae (SNe) at z=0.185 and 0.324 discovered by the…

Multiple Component Analysis of Time Resolved Spectra of GRB041006: A Clue to the Nature of Underlying Soft Component of GRBs

Yuji Shirasaki, Atsumasa Yoshida, Nobuyuki Kawai +30

GRB 041006 was detected by HETE-2 at 12:18:08 UT on 06 October 2004. This GRB displays a soft X-ray emission, a precursor before the onset of the main event, and also a soft X-ray…

Evolution of progenitor stars of Type Ibc supernovae and long gamma-ray bursts

S. -C. Yoon, N. Langer, M. Cantiello +2

We discuss how rotation and binary interactions may be related to the diversity of type Ibc supernovae and long gamma-ray bursts. After presenting recent evolutionary models of mas…
