  2. Hypernova - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypernova

    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 masses ) collapses to form a rotating black hole emitting twin astrophysical jets and surrounded by an accretion disk .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilonova

    First kilonova observations by the Hubble Space Telescope [18] A first observational suggestion of a kilonova came in 2008 following the gamma-ray burst GRB 080503, [19] where a faint object appeared in optical light after one day and rapidly faded. However, other factors such as the lack of a galaxy and the detection of X-rays were not in ...

    SN 1054 remnant (Crab Nebula)A supernova is an event in which a star destroys itself in an explosion which can briefly become as luminous as an entire galaxy.This list of supernovae of historical significance includes events that were observed prior to the development of photography, and individual events that have been the subject of a scientific paper that contributed to supernova theory.

    For the hypernova SN 2006gy, studies indicate that perhaps 40 solar masses of the original star were released as Ni-56, almost the entire mass of the star's core regions. [4] Collision between the exploding star core and gas it ejected earlier, and radioactive decay, release most of the visible light.
