Common envelope jets supernova (CEJSN) is a type of supernova, where the explosion is caused by the merger of a giant or supergiant star with a compact...

March 2023, a third supernova appeared in this galaxy: SN 2023dbc (Type Ic, mag. 17). 2023dbc is likely a stripped-envelope supernova as there is no evidence...

and Ic supernovae are a type of core-collapse supernova for a massive star that has shed its outer envelope of hydrogen and (for Type Ic) helium. As a result...

A Type Ia supernova (read: "type one-A") is a type of supernova that occurs in binary systems (two stars orbiting one another) in which one of the stars...

A hypernova is a very energetic supernova which is believed to result from an extreme core collapse scenario. In this case, a massive star (>30 solar...

A close candidate to being a survivor of a type Ia supernova is WD 0810-353. A post-common envelope binary (PCEB) is a binary consisting of a white dwarf...
