The cosmological gamma-ray burst (GRB) phenomenon is reviewed. The broad
observational facts and empirical phenomenological relations of the GRB prompt emission …

We review the ensemble of anticipated gravitational-wave (GW) emission processes in
stellar core collapse and postbounce core-collapse supernova evolution. We discuss recent …

Neutrinos play a crucial role in the collapse and explosion of massive stars, governing the
infall dynamics of the stellar core, triggering and fueling the explosion and driving the …

We study the gravitational wave (GW) signal from eight new 3D core-collapse supernova
simulations. We show that the signal is dominated by f-and g-mode oscillations of the …

The evolution of rotating stars with zero-age main-sequence (ZAMS) masses in the range 8–
25 M⊙ is followed through all stages of stable evolution. The initial angular momentum is …

Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous explosions in the Universe, and their origin and
mechanism are the focus of intense research and debate. More than three decades after …

Growing theoretical evidence suggests that the first generation of stars may have been quite
massive (~ 100-300 solar masses). If they retain their high mass until death, such stars will …

We performed a detailed analysis of the detectability of a wide range of gravitational waves
derived from core-collapse supernova simulations using gravitational-wave detector noise …

The processes contributing to the evolution of an initially weak magnetic field in a
differentially rotating star are reviewed. These include rotational smoothing (akin to …

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-
collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the …
