The detection of the Type Ia supernova SN 2020eyj at radio wavelengths show that the exploded white dwarf had a helium-rich companion.

A type Ia supernova event called SN 2022abvt was discovered two years ago in the spiral galaxy LEDA 132905.

Latest chemical "forensic" analysis finds telltale abundances of trace elements.

Type Ia supernovae (SNe) are believed to be caused by the thermonuclear explosion of a white dwarf (WD), but the nature of the progenitor system(s) is still unclear. Recent theoretical and observational developments have led to renewed interest in double degenerate models, in particular the "helium-ignited violent merger" or "dynamically-driven double-degenerate double-detonation" (D$^6$). In this paper we take the…

Type Ia supernovae serve as cosmic yardsticks that enable astronomers to measure distances.

AI has spotted and classified its first supernova explosion, a breakthrough that could allow astronomers to spend more time investigating the origins of...

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a supernova image that could help scientists compute for the Hubble constant.

Astronomers using the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) -- a collaboration between NASA and the Italian Space Agency -- have observed X-ray emitting regions of Tycho's supernova remnant (SNR).

NASA has released a beautiful photo taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope of the spiral galaxy LEDA 22057.

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured a striking photo of a little-known galaxy called WISEA J070815.11+210422.3.

Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have produced a spectacularly detailed image of the supernova-hosting spiral galaxy NGC 3810.

A rare stellar death may have formed a rock that eventually landed in Egypt.

Named SNR J0614-7251 and SNR J0624-6948, the newly-discovered supernova remnants reside in the outskirts of the Large Magellanic Cloud, the largest satellite galaxy of the Milky Way.

Light from a Type Ia supernova explosion that created the supernova remnant SNR 0519-69.0 reached Earth about 670 years ago.

The Lambda-CDM (ΛCDM) model has been the foundation of modern cosmology for some time now, successfully describing large-scale structures in the Universe.

Supernova (SN) 185 occurred in 185 CE in the direction of Alpha Centauri, between the constellations of Circinus and Centaurus.

Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have imaged the barred spiral galaxy NGC 6956, which is found in the constellation of Delphinus.

A Type Ia supernova named Encore is the second multiply-imaged supernova detected in MRG-M0138, a galaxy around 10 billion light-years away in the constellation of Cetus.

Light from the distant supernova-hosting galaxy was gravitationally lensed by the foreground galaxy cluster RX J2129.6+0005 (RX J2129 for short).

Gravitationally lensed images of two different supernovas in the same galaxy can be used to measure the expansion rate of the universe.
