the astrophysical origins of r-process elements remain elusive. neutron star mergers (nsms) and special classes of core-collapse supernovae (rccsne) are leading candidates. due to these channels' distinct characteristic timescales (rccsne: prompt, nsms: delayed), measuring r-process enrichment in galaxies of similar ma...

we propose a new constraint on light (sub-gev) particles beyond the standard model that can be produced inside the protoneutron star core resulting from the core-collapse supernova explosion. it is derived by demanding that the energy carried by exotic particles being transferred to the progenitor stellar envelopes not...

in recent years, wide-field sky surveys providing deep multiband imaging have presented a new path for indirectly characterizing the progenitor populations of core-collapse supernovae (sne): systematic light-curve studies. we assemble a set of 76 grizy-band type iip sn light curves from pan-starrs1, obtained over a con...

the physics of cosmic rays (crs) is a promising candidate for explaining the driving of galactic winds and outflows. recent galaxy formation simulations have demonstrated the need for active cr transport either in the form of diffusion or streaming to successfully launch winds in galaxies. however, due to computational...
galactic winds driven by isotropic and anisotropic cosmic-ray diffusion in disk galaxies
new decay channels for the neutron into dark matter plus other particles have been suggested for explaining a long-standing discrepancy between the neutron lifetime measured from trapped neutrons versus those decaying in flight. many such scenarios are already ruled out by their effects on neutron stars, and the decay ...

supernovae that show evidence of strong shock interaction between their ejecta and pre-existing slower circumstellar material (csm) constitute an interesting, diverse, and still poorly understood category of explosive transients. the chief reason they are extremely interesting is because they tell us that in a subset o...

the apparent tension between the luminosity functions of red supergiant (rsg) stars and of rsg progenitors of type ii supernovae (sne) is often referred to as the rsg problem and it motivated some to suggest that many rsgs end their life without a sn explosion. however, the luminosity functions of rsg sn progenitors pr...

massive stars inject mechanical and radiative energy into the surrounding environment, which stirs it up, heats the gas, produces cloud and intercloud phases in the interstellar medium, and disrupts molecular clouds (the birth sites of new stars1,2). stellar winds, supernova explosions and ionization by ultraviolet pho...

the excess of electron recoil events seen by the xenon1t experiment has been interpreted as a potential signal of axion-like particles (alps), either produced in the sun, or constituting part of the dark matter halo of the milky way. it has also been explained as a consequence of trace amounts of tritium in the experim...

neutrinos in supernovae, neutron stars, and in the early universe may change flavor collectively and unstably, due to neutrino-neutrino forward scattering. we prove that, for collective instability to occur, the difference of momentum distributions of two flavors must change sign, i.e., there is a zero crossing. this n...

estimating transient rates from cosmological simulations and bpass
new early dark energy (nede) makes the cosmic microwave background consistent with a higher value of the hubble constant inferred from supernovae observations. it is a better alternative to the old ede model because it explains naturally the decay of the extra energy component in terms of a vacuum first-order phase tra...

neutrino-neutrino forward scatterings potentially induce collective neutrino oscillation in dense neutrino gases in astrophysical sites such as core-collapse supernovae (ccsne) and binary neutron star mergers (bnsms). in this paper, we present a detailed study of fast neutrino-flavor conversion (ffc), paying special at...
simple method for determining asymptotic states of fast neutrino-flavor conversion
context. it is well known that massive o stars are frequently (if not always) found in binary or higher-order multiple systems, but this fact has been less robustly investigated for the lower mass range of the massive stars, represented by b-type stars. obtaining the binary fraction and orbital parameter distributions ...

natal kicks are one of the most debated issues about double neutron star (dns) formation. several observational and theoretical results suggest that some dnss have formed with low natal kicks (≲ 50 km s-1), which might be attributed to electron-capture supernovae (ecsne). we investigate the impact of ecsne on the forma...

the hubble constant tension problem is analyzed in the framework of a class of modified gravity, the so-called f (r) gravity. to do so, we explore two models: an exponential and a power-law f (r) gravities, which includes an early dark energy (ede) term in the latter. these models can describe both an early time inflat...

we investigate kaniadakis-holographic dark energy by confronting it with observations. we perform a markov chain monte carlo analysis using cosmic chronometers, supernovae type ia, and baryon acoustic oscillations data. concerning the kaniadakis parameter, we find that it is constrained around zero, namely around the v...

in this paper, we analyze the neutrino-driven winds that emerge in 12 unprecedentedly long-duration 3d core-collapse supernova simulations done using the code fornax. the 12 models cover progenitors with zero-age main-sequence mass between 9 and 60 solar masses. in all our models, we see transonic outflows that are at ...
