  1. Type II Supernovae - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Type II supernovae are created by massive stars with extended envelopes. When the supernova shock breaks out of such a star, it creates a collisionless shock which may accelerate protons above 10 …

  2. A graph-based spectral classification of Type II supernovae

    Jul 1, 2023 · A spectral classification scheme of Type II supernovae (SNe II) is proposed based on the phase relative to the maximum light in the V band and the end of the plateau phase. We utilize a …

  3. Type Ia Supernovae - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Type II and type Ia supernovae provide the dominant sites in which this “explosive nucleosynthesis” mechanism is known to operate. These two supernova sites operate on distinctively different …

  4. Circumstellar material ejected violently by a massive star immediately ...

    Nov 15, 2023 · Abstract Type II supernovae represent the most common stellar explosions in the Universe, for which the final stage evolution of their hydrogen-rich massive progenitors towards core …

  5. Type Ic Supernovae - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Jan 9, 2008 · 1 Introduction The initial state that leads to a type-II (or type-Ib or type-Ic) supernova is essentially an iron white dwarf (the endpoint of nuclear fusion reactions) in the center of a massive …

  6. Circumstellar material ejected violently by a massive star immediately ...

    Nov 15, 2023 · Abstract Type II supernovae represent the most common stellar explosions in the Universe, for which the final stage evolution of their hydrogen-rich massive progenitors towards core …

  7. Supernovae - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Type II supernovae are associated with the core collapse of a massive star together with a shock-driven expansion of a luminous shell which leaves behind a rapidly rotating neutron star or, if the core has …

  8. Supernovae - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Jan 9, 2008 · The astronomical classification distinguishes two main types based on their spectra: in Type I supernovae no hydrogen lines are seen in the spectrum while Type II supernovae (making up …

  9. Core-Collapse Supernovae - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Core-collapse supernovae are especially diverse in their UV properties, with hydrogen-dominated type II supernovae typically being UV-bright for significant periods of time and the radioactively-powered …

  10. Massive supernovae in binary systems - ScienceDirect

    Apr 1, 1999 · The principal effects of evolution in a close binary system on the progenitor of a Type II supernova can be broadly divided into three categories (Podsiadlowski et al., 1992; hereafter PJH): …
