TLDR
In this article, the authors present new nucleosynthesis yields as functions of the stellar mass, metallicity, and explosion energy (corresponding to normal supernovae and hypernovae), and apply the results to the chemical evolution of the solar neighborhood.

Progenitors of Core-Collapse Supernovae

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the recent progress in finding the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae and the physical mechanism of the explosion. But they did not discuss the physical mechanisms of the supernova explosion.

Nucleosynthesis in Stars and the Chemical Enrichment of Galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the recent results of the nucleosynthesis yields of mainly massive stars for a wide range of stellar masses, metallicities, and explosion energies, and provide yields tables and examine how those yields are affected by some hydrodynamical effe...

Galactic Chemical Evolution: Carbon through Zinc

TL;DR: In this article, the authors calculate the evolution of heavy-element abundances from C to Zn in the solar neighborhood, adopting their new nucleosynthesis yields for wide ranges of metallicity (Z = 0-Z☉) and the explosion energy (normal supernovae and hypernovae).

The r-process of stellar nucleosynthesis: Astrophysics and nuclear physics achievements and mysteries

TL;DR: A review of the state-of-the-art in the field can be found in this paper, where the authors present a brief summary of the one- or multidimensional spherical or non-spherical explosion simulations available to date.

The Evolution and Explosion of Massive Stars. II. Explosive Hydrodynamics and Nucleosynthesis

TL;DR: In this paper, the nucleosynthetic yield of isotopes lighter than A = 66 (zinc) is determined for a grid of stellar masses and metallicities including stars of 11, 12, 13, 15, 18, 19, 20, 22, 25, 30, 35, and 40 M{sub {circle_dot}} and metals Z = 0, 10{sup {minus}4}, 0.01, 0.1, and 1 times solar (a slightly reduced mass grid is employed for non-solar metallicities).

Gamma-ray bursts from stellar mass accretion disks around black holes

TL;DR: In this paper, a cosmological model for gamma-ray bursts is explored in which the radiation is produced as a broadly beamed pair fireball along the rotation axis of an accreting black hole.

Optical spectra of supernovae

TL;DR: In this article, the temporal evolution of the optical spectra of various types of supernovae (SNe) is illustrated, in part to aid observers classifying supernova candidates.
