Watch an astrophysics colloquium presentation exploring the fascinating phenomena of supernovae, tidal disruption events, and merging neutron stars. Delve into cutting-edge research that provides insights into nuclear physics, cosmology, element creation, compact object formation, and galaxy evolution. Learn about ongoing investigations into tidal disruption events and their unexpected emission characteristics, discover how supernovae research constrains late-stage stellar evolution and explosion mechanisms, and understand the use of asteroseismology to study massive stars' internal structure. Explore the coordinated efforts across multiple observatories to detect more gravitational-wave events and their electromagnetic counterparts. Presented by Iair Arcavi from Tel Aviv University at the Institute for Advanced Study / Princeton University Joint Astrophysics Colloquium.
