A Supernova Explosion Event is a stellar-scale catastrophic astronomical event that occurs when a massive star undergoes gravitational collapse producing element synthesis through extreme nuclear fusion.
- AKA: Stellar Death Event, Star Explosion Event, Core-Collapse Supernova Event.
- Context:
- It can typically generate Heavy Chemical Elements through supernova nucleosynthesis processes beyond supernova iron peak.
- It can typically release Supernova Energy Waves containing supernova neutrino bursts and supernova electromagnetic radiation.
- It can typically create Supernova Remnant Structures including supernova neutron stars or supernova black holes.
- It can typically disperse Supernova Enriched Materials throughout supernova interstellar mediums for supernova cosmic recycling.
- It can typically trigger Supernova Shock Waves that compress supernova molecular clouds initiating supernova star formation.
- ...
- It can often produce Supernova Light Curves visible across supernova galactic distances for supernova astronomical observation.
- It can often synthesize Supernova Radioactive Isotopes that power supernova afterglow emissions over supernova decay timescales.
- It can often generate Supernova Gravitational Waves detectable by supernova interferometer instruments.
- It can often accelerate Supernova Cosmic Ray Particles to supernova relativistic velocityes.

- It can range from being a Type Ia Supernova Explosion Event to being a Core-Collapse Supernova Explosion Event, depending on its supernova progenitor mechanism.
- It can range from being a Low-Mass Supernova Explosion Event to being a Hypernova Explosion Event, depending on its supernova energy magnitude.
- It can range from being a Prompt Supernova Explosion Event to being a Delayed Supernova Explosion Event, depending on its supernova collapse duration.
- It can range from being a Symmetric Supernova Explosion Event to being a Asymmetric Supernova Explosion Event, depending on its supernova explosion geometry.
- It can range from being a Isolated Supernova Explosion Event to being a Binary System Supernova Explosion Event, depending on its supernova stellar environment.
- ...
- It can integrate with Cosmic Element Distributions for supernova metallicity enrichment.
- It can connect to Cosmic Threshold Moment Events for supernova complexity generation.
- It can interface with Galaxy Evolution Processes for supernova chemical evolution.
- It can synchronize with Star Formation Processes for supernova triggered starburst.
- It can relate to Cosmic Distance Measures for supernova standard candle calibration.

- Example(s):
- Historical Supernova Explosion Events, such as:
- SN 1054 Supernova Explosion Event (1054 CE), creating the Crab Nebula with supernova pulsar remnant.
- Kepler's Supernova Explosion Event (1604 CE), the last supernova galactic observation in the Milky Way.
- SN 1987A Supernova Explosion Event (1987 CE), providing supernova neutrino detections and supernova modern observations.
- Type Ia Supernova Explosion Events, such as:
- Core-Collapse Supernova Explosion Events, such as:
- Exotic Supernova Explosion Events, such as:
- ...
- Historical Supernova Explosion Events, such as:
- Counter-Example(s):
- Nova Event, which involves surface explosions without stellar core collapse unlike supernova explosion events.
- Planetary Nebula Formation, which represents gentle stellar shedding lacking explosive nucleosynthesis of supernova explosion events.
- Stellar Wind Process, which gradually removes stellar material without catastrophic explosion characteristic of supernova explosion events.
- Gamma-Ray Burst, which may occur without supernova optical emissions despite similar energy release.
