Core Collapse and Explosion

1. collapse
2. bounce
3. a miracle occurs
4. explosion!

Supernova Neutrinos

• neutronization
• thermal emission

SN 1987A

• progenitor
• explosion
• light curve: summarized in Bouchet+ (1991)
• light echos here and here
• rings: collision stills from HST, movies from HST, Chandra
• inner blast movie: HST
• ALMA 3D movie of dust and molecules
• neutrinos: detected by Kamiokande (Hirata+ 1987) and IMB (Bionta+ 1987) neutrino curve
• 2002 Nobel Prize in Physics:
  Masatoshi Koshiba and Kamiokande

Supernova Nucleosynthesis

• modelling strategies
• explosive nucleosynthesis
• supernova yields: compared to solar (Sukhbold+ 2016)
• in context: Solar System abundances

Cosmic Core-Collapse Supernovae

• event rates
• diffuse supernova neutrino background
