Supernovae and gamma-ray bursts are the strongest explosions in the Universe. Observations show that, rather than being symmetrical, they are driven by strong jets of energy and other asymmetrical effects. Originally published in 2004, this volume marked the transition to a fresh paradigm in the study of stellar explosions.
