A Stellar Whodunit: Search for a Near-Earth Supernova
Who’s behind this cosmic mystery of stellar proportions? Read on to uncover the truth.
Trying to Crack the Cold Case of Core Collapse Neutrinos
The first (and last) time we observed neutrinos from a supernova was 40 years ago. Are we ready to understand what the next supernova neutrino will tell us?
“Our plans are measured in centuries”: Using Gravitational Waves to predict how Supernovae Collapse
Read ahead to find out if the authors of today’s paper are the Bene Gesserit of our Universe!
Testing cosmology with the DES 5-year supernovae dataset
In today’s astrobite, we discuss the results of the cosmology analysis for the Dark Energy Survey, from it’s 5 year supernovae dataset.
Scoring GOALS with Neutrinos from Starbursts
What do neutrinos and soccer games have in common? Check out today’s bite to see! Spoiler: starbursts lose the neutrino production game!
Oh no, where’d your envelope go? The discovery of intermediate-mass stripped stars in the Magellanic Clouds
Stars of all masses can have their outer layers stripped away during interactions with a binary companion. Today’s paper reports the first-ever discovery of intermediate-mass stripped stars, which are thought to be the main progenitors of stripped-envelope supernovae!
