Neutrinos are pivotal signals in multi-messenger observations of supernovae (SNe). Recent advancements in the analysis method of supernova (SN) neutrinos, especially in quantitative analysis, have significantly broadened scientific…

(abridged) We study the low energy events observed by Kamiokande-II. We focus on the event 6 of 6.3 MeV and also on the other events that at 1 sigma fall below the energy threshold: events 3,4,10,12. The volume distribution is not a uniform…

Decades-long repeat observations of supernova SN1987A offer us unique, real-time insights into the violent death of a massive star and its long-term environmental effects, until its eventual switch-off.
