For example, Type II supernovae, also known as core-collapse supernovae are known to produce Titanium-44, which is an unstable isotope. Through decay processes, this can create an excess of ...

This is particularly true for one particular kind of supernova known as Type Ia. An overview of the different proposed Type Ia supernova progenitors has been published on the arXiv preprint server.

"Classifying 10,000 supernovae is a tremendous achievement ... much material from another nearby star that it explodes, or Type II, when massive stars collapse and die under their own gravity.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – An international team of researchers has made new observations of an unusual supernova, finding the most metal-poor stellar explosion ever observed. This rare supernova ...
