Supernovae are highly energetic phenomena for which it is necessary
to use simultaneously particle physics, nuclear physics and
hydrodynamics to study the creation of the strong explosions
involved. Supernovae synthesize heavy elements and in some cases
lead to the formation of neutron stars or black holes. Recent
progress has revealed new classes of explosions, and new insights
into the evolution and explosion mechanisms including that of the
dramatic event SN 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Major
questions still remain, concerning the evolution of massive stars
in binary systems, the nature of gravitational collapse, and the
physical processes involved in the thermonuclear explosion of
degenerate stars. This School explores our current understanding of
supernovae, and areas of active study.
