SUMMARY:Young Astronomers
DESCRIPTION:Kia ora! \nWelcome to Young Astronomers. We’ll be restarting the programme and looking to gather feedback from both young astronomers and parents for what a new programme could look like. Bring your ideas to share. All welcome! \nSnacks provided! \n  \nCarolle

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting August - The Most Luminous Supernovae: It Takes Two To Tango
DESCRIPTION:Guest Speaker : \nDr. Heloise F. Stevance\,  MPhys\, AFHEA\, PhD\n\nResearch Fellow in Astrophysics\n\n  \nWhen massive stars reach the end of their lives they undergo a supernovae explosion powered by the collapse of their core. In the past decade and a half\, a small subset of these events have been found to be brighter and more powerful: They are called super luminous supernovae. Work is ongoing to understand the power source of these extreme transients and in particular here I focus on SN 2017gci which showed evidence for a central magnetar and potential shells of hydrogen around the progenitor system. State of the art binary models were used to search for star systems that could evolve to re-create this explosion. \nDr. Heloise F. Stevance \nOriginally born and raised in France\, I moved to the UK to study Physics and Astronomy at the University of Sheffield. After working as a support astronomer at the Isaac Newton Group in La Palma for a year\, I obtained my Masters of Physics in 2015. I subsequently started a PhD studying the 3D shape of Core Collapse Supernovae\, and earned my title in Spring 2019. In July of that year\, I joined the University of Auckland as a Research Fellow to research the evolution of massive stars to better understand how they die and produce Supernovae and Kilonovae. \nI also started my public outreach work during my doctorate studies\, in early 2016\, and I have not stopped since.
