Shock breakouts from red supergiants: analytical and numerical predictions

Alexandra Kozyreva, Ehud Nakar, Roni Waldman +2

Shock breakout (SBO) signal is the first signature of the supernova explosion apart from gravitational waves and neutrinos. Observational properties of SBO, such as bolometric lumi…

Catching Element Formation In The Act

Chris L. Fryer, Frank Timmes, Aimee L. Hungerford +216

Gamma-ray astronomy explores the most energetic photons in nature to address some of the most pressing puzzles in contemporary astrophysics. It encompasses a wide range of objects…

The role of radioactive nickel in shaping the plateau phase of Type II supernovae

Alexandra Kozyreva, Ehud Nakar, Roni Waldman

In the present study, we systematically explore the effect of the radioactive 56Ni and its mixing properties in the ejecta on the plateau of Type IIP supernovae (SNe). We evaluate…

Supernovae from massive stars with extended tenuous envelopes

Luc Dessart, Sung-Chul Yoon, Eli Livne +1

Massive stars with a core-halo structure are interesting objects for stellar physics and hydrodynamics. Using simulations for stellar evolution, radiation hydrodynamics, and radiat…

Progenitors of low-luminosity Type II-Plateau supernovae

Sergey M. Lisakov, Luc Dessart, D. John Hillier +2

The progenitors of low-luminosity Type II-Plateau supernovae (SNe II-P) are believed to be red supergiant (RSG) stars, but there is much disparity in the literature concerning thei…

Radiative-transfer models for explosions from rotating and non-rotating single WC stars. Implications for SN1998bw and LGRB/SNe

Luc Dessart, D. John Hillier, Sung-Chul Yoon +2

Using 1-D non-Local-Thermodynamic-Equilibrium time-dependent radiative-transfer simulations, we study the ejecta properties required to match the early and late-time photometric an…
