nu-Process Nucleosynthesis in Population III Core-Collapse Supernovae

Takashi Yoshida, Hideyuki Umeda, Ken'ichi Nomoto

We investigate the effects of neutrino-nucleus interactions (the nu-process) on the production of iron-peak elements in Population III core-collapse supernovae. The nu-process and…

The Unique Type Ib Supernova 2005bf: A WN Star Explosion Model for Peculiar Light Curves and Spectra

N. Tominaga, M. Tanaka, K. Nomoto +22

Observations and modeling for the light curve (LC) and spectra of supernova (SN) 2005bf are reported. This SN showed unique features: the LC had two maxima, and declined rapidly af…

Precursors and Main-bursts of Gamma Ray Bursts in a Hypernova Scenario

Hideyuki Umeda, Nozomu Tominaga, Keiichi Maeda +1

We investigate a "hypernova" model for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), i.e., massive C+O star model with relativistic jets. In this model, non-thermal precursors can be produced by the "f…

Optical Spectropolarimetry of SN 2002ap: High Velocity Asymmetric Explosion

K. S. Kawabata, D. J. Jeffery, M. Iye +27

We present spectropolarimetry of the Type Ic supernova SN 2002ap and give a preliminary analysis: the data were taken at two epochs, close to and one month later than the visual ma…

Nucleosynthesis in Chandrasekhar Mass Models for Type Ia Supernovae and Constraints on Progenitor Systems and Burning-Front Propagation

K. Iwamoto, F. Brachwitz, K. Nomoto +4

We calculate explosive nucleosynthesis in Chandrasekhar mass models for Type Ia Supernovae(SNe Ia) to obtain new constraints on the rate of matter accretion onto the progenitor whi…
