A large fraction of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe), 30-50%, are expected to originate from the low-mass end of progenitors with $M_{\rm ZAMS}~= 8-12~M_\odot$. However, degeneracy effects make stellar evolution modelling of such stars…

RX J0046.5$-$7308 is a shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We carried out new $^{12}$CO($J$ = 1-0, 3-2) observations toward the SNR using Mopra and the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment. We found…

We have performed the submillimeter and millimeter observations in CO lines toward supernova remnant (SNR) IC443. CO molecular shell is well coincident with the partial shell of the SNR detected in radio continuum observations. The broad…

It has been an unsolved question what leads a supernova remnant (SNR) to a thermal composite rather than a typical shell-like morphology, and what causes recombining plasma inside it. With the 13-ks observation of the Following-up X-ray…

Core-collapse supernovae (SNe) are sources of gravitational waves (GWs) produced by hydrodynamical instabilities and highly time-dependent anisotropies of the neutrino radiation. In this work we analyze both contributions to the GW signal…

We use the supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) as a supernova (SN) survey, "conducted" over tens of kyr, from which we derive the current SN rate, and the SN delay time distribution (DTD), i.e., the SN rate vs. time…
