Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instabilities in the explosion of SN 1993J are investigated by means of two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations. It is found that the extent of mixing is sensitive to the progenitor's core mass and the envelope…

The radio light curves of novae rise and fall over the course of months to years, allowing for detailed observations of the evolution of the nova shell. However, the main parameter determined by radio models of nova explosions - the mass of…

The unusual supernova SN1998bw, which is thought to be related to the gamma-ray burster GRB980425, is a possible link between the two classes of objects. Analyzing the extensive radio emission data avaliable for SN1998bw, we are able to…

We present a radio light curve of supernova (SN) 2014C taken with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager (AMI) Large Array at 15.7 GHz. Optical observations presented by Milisavljevic et al. demonstrated that SN 2014C metamorphosed from a…

Recently, repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) with a period of $P_{\rm FRB}=16.35\pm0.18$ days from FRB 180916.J0158+65 had been reported. It still remains controversial how to give rise to such a periodicity of this FRB. In this Letter,…

Supernova (SN) 1987A provides a unique laboratory for investigating many aspects of SN physics and evolution. An observation at Day 12927 (35.4 yr) since the explosion with the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) Medium Resolution Spectrometer…

We present observations of the radio emission from the unusual SN 1988Z made with the VLA from 385 to 4,438 days after explosion. SN 1988Z is the most distant radio supernova ever detected. The radio light curves are well-described by a…

A detailed analysis of simultaneous photometric and spectroscopic observations of the optical counterpart of the LMC "supersoft" X-ray source RX J0513.9-6951 (identified with HV 5682) is presented. The spectrum is dominated by He II…

We present radio observations of a Type Ib supernova (SN) Master OT J120451.50+265946.6. Our low frequency Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) data taken when the SN was in the optically thick phase for observed frequencies reveal…

We demonstrate that the high-magnetic field pulsar J1119-6127 exhibits three different types of behaviour in the radio band. Trailing the "normal" profile peak there is an "intermittent" peak and these components are flanked by two…

We present new optical and infrared photometric observations and high resolution H$\alpha$ spectra of the periodic radio star \lsi. The optical photometric data set covers the time interval 1985-1993 and amounts to about a hundred nights. A…

Black widows are millisecond pulsars ablating their companions. The material blown from the companion blocks the radio emission, resulting in radio eclipses. The properties of the eclipse medium are poorly understood. Here, we present…

Observations of the Type II-P (plateau) Supernova (SN) 1999em and Type IIn (narrow emission line) SN 1998S have enabled estimation of the profile of the SN ejecta, the structure of the circumstellar medium (CSM) established by the pre-SN…

We observed SN1979C in M100 on 4 June 1999, about twenty years after explosion, with a very sensitive four-antenna VLBI array at the wavelength of 18cm. The distance to M100 and the expansion velocities are such that the supernova cannot be…
