Chasing Supernovae Explosions with Kepler

The Kepler Telescope discovered and revolutionized our understanding of 1000s of exoplanets. However, it also has given us the opportunity to study supernova explosions with exquisite accuracy. I will talk about how we can use these Kepler light curves to learn about the progenitors of the different types of supernovae and the physics of their explosion mechanisms.

Las Cumbres Observatory is pleased to present a series of free public talks featuring leading scientists speaking about exciting new discoveries in astronomy.
