Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) mark the deaths of stars more massive than about eight
times the mass of the Sun and are intrinsically the most common kind of catastrophic cosmic …

To place core-collapse supernovae (SNe) in context with the evolution of massive stars, it is
necessary to determine their stellar origins. I describe the direct identification of SN …

Over the last 15 years, the supernova community has endeavoured to directly identify
progenitor stars for core-collapse supernovae discovered in nearby galaxies. These …

Literature data are collated for 38 stripped-envelope core-collapse supernovae (SE SNe; ie
SNe IIb, Ib, Ic and Ic-BL) that have good light-curve coverage in more than one optical band …

Context. We investigate two stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe) discovered in the nearby
galaxy NGC 5806 by the (intermediate) Palomar Transient Factory [(i) PTF]. These SNe …

We present 2D hydrodynamics simulations of near-Chandrasekhar-mass white dwarf (WD)
models for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) using the turbulent deflagration model with a …

It is difficult to establish the properties of massive stars that explode as supernovae 1, 2. The
electromagnetic emission during the first minutes to hours after the emergence of the shock …

Linking supernovae to their progenitors is a powerful method for furthering our
understanding of the physical origin of their observed differences while at the same time …

We investigate line formation processes in Type IIb supernovae (SNe) from 100 to 500 days
post-explosion using spectral synthesis calculations. The modelling identifies the nuclear …
