    Research advances in understanding brightest explosions in Universe

    January 24, 2020 10:23 IST

    Superluminous supernovae are the brightest explosions in the cosmos. Over a few months, they radiate as much energy as the Sun does over its entire lifetime, reaching a peak brightness exceeding that of an entire galaxy. The origin of this energy, and what kind of stellar progenitor system has exploded, are still unclear.
