	APOD: April 20, 1999 - Candidates for a Hypernova
		hypernova was originally postulated to explain the great amount of energy seemingly liberated in a gamma-ray burst.
		Nearby spiral galaxy M101, shown on the right, has two large expanding shells that might have originated from a hypernova.
		Research continues into the possible nature and visibility of hypernovae and the gas shells they likely leave behind.

	Hypernova - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A hypernova is a theoretical type of supernova produced when an exceptionally large star collapses at the end of its lifespan.
		In a hypernova, the core of the star collapses directly into a fl hole and two extremely energetic jets of plasma are emitted from its rotational poles at nearly the speed of light.
		If hypernovae only occur in massive stellar objects at least 40 times the mass of our sun, then the Earth is completely safe from such an event.

		This raises the possibility that "hypernovae" might be a significant cause of gamma-ray bursts.
		The rarity that might fit this pigeonhole is the hypernova, an idea that has been around for a few years but not yet confirmed.

	Brighter than an Exploding Star, It's a Hypernova!
		"Hypernovae are possibly the most powerful explosions in our Universe since the Big Bang," said Q. Daniel Wang, an astrophysicist at Northwestern University.
		It is hoped that the discovery of these two suspected hypernova remnants, called MF83 and NGC5471B, located in the nearby spiral galaxy M101 will allow astrophysicists to infer their true nature.
		The two suspected hypernova remnants cannot be seen in optical light; they are only visible in X-ray light and in emission lines from some specific atomic activity.

	ScienceDaily: Astronomers Find First Observational Evidence For "Hypernova" Explosion
		Hypernovae were first proposed by Bohdan Paczynski of Princeton University in 1998 as a way to explain GRBs, which were initially discovered by U.S. military Vela satellites in the 1960s.
		With an explosion energy orders of magnitude greater than a canonical supernova, hypernovae are likely related to the formation of fl holes, possibly due to the collapse of massive stars and/or their mergers with dense, or compact, objects.
		Although a hypernova remnant may last tens of million years, it does not shine as gloriously as the initial explosion.

		A hypernova is a theoretical type of supernova produced when exceptionally large stars collapse at the end of their lifespan.
		In a hypernova, the core of the star collapses directly into a fl hole and two extremely energetic jets of plasma are emitted from its rotational poles at nearly light speed.
		If the Earth were within the path of one of the energetic cones the interactions of the gamma rays in the upper atmosphere would produce a lethal dose of highly penetrating ionized particles, destroying life on the surface, underground and underwater.

		Hypernovae are, like supernovae, formed from dying stars.
		Hypernova are only formed by incredibly heavy and fast burning stars.
		A recent study found that the threat from them is pretty much non-existant since they found that a SN would have to be within 25 light years of Earth to do any damage and there are no SN candidates that close to us.

	GSFC Press Release 99-035
		The detection of hypernova remnants could provide better understanding of the dynamics of star explosions and begin to unlock the mystery of the gamma ray burst (GRB) phenomenon.

		Just as a flashlight is brighter when pointed directly in your eyes, astronomers might have measured a concentrated form of energy due to what is known as the beaming effect.

		Moreover, shopping galleries, within which most of Hypernovas operate, offer premises to small and medium-sized traders, who supplement in suitable ways the range of services and products offered by Hypernova.

		Astronomers conclude that the hypernova grows rapidly along with other normal stars in a nursery, but burns out when its contemporaries are still in their infancy.
		Find a hypernova, therefore, and you have also tracked down a part of space where stellar synthesis is underway.
		Which is why some scientists now believe that the huge explosions of hypernovae may be the key to unlocking one of the great unsolved mysteries in the Universe: how the first stars were made at the very dawn of time.

	Cosmological Gamma-Ray Bursts and Hypernovae Conclusively Linked
		The spectra show the gradual and clear emergence of a supernova spectrum of the most energetic class known, a "hypernova".
		The team concludes that it is likely to be due to the nearly instantaneous, non-symmetrical collapse of the inner region of a highly developed star (known as the "collapsar" model).
		Hypernovae are rare events and they are probably caused by explosion of stars of the so-called Wolf-Rayet" type [4].

		The shortcomings included manipulation with expiry date on some meat products at the Hypernova outlet in Cestlice outside Prague and incorrect specifications of the expiry date on food at Hypernova in Nove Butovice on the outskirts of Prague, SZPI spokeswoman Daniela Kolejkova said.
		Hypernova in Nove Butovice had been fined for the same failings in the past but did not adopt the required measures.
		In early 2005, SZPI discovered manipulation with expiry dates at the Hypernova outlet on Budejovicka street in Prague, and last week ordered Hypernova in Jindrichuv Hradec, South Bohemia, to stop selling food, having found that the outlet was full of mice.

		First, the hypernova model and, second, the merger of two compact objects such as neutron stars or fl holes.
		"By far, they favour the hypernova model, simply because you expect the merger models to be entirely dominated by heavier elements like iron," says Darach Watson, Leicester University, one of the team.

		The newly formed star later explodes to form an extraordinary type of supernova, which has been dubbed a "hypernova." During the hypernova explosion, the core of the star collapses to form a central fl hole, while the rapidly rotating matter just outside the core forms a massive torus surrounding the fl hole.
		In both quasars and microquasars, the energy released by the infalling matter is emitted in beams that are directed along the rotation axis of the infalling matter.
		In the case of a microquasar produced in a hypernova event, we see a gamma-ray burst if one of these beams is directed toward the earth.

	what mass is lost after a hypernovae?
		If all the mass of the star(s) causing the hypernova is converted to e then the answer is that all the mass is lost.
		If there is any remnant, like a fl hole, then all the mass except for the remnant is lost, but that would vary in each and every case depending on the dynamics of that particular hypernova.
		It has been suggested that the sudden collapse of “super-massive stars” produce Hypernovae bursts, and that enigmas such as smaller Black Holes are remnants of such events.

		Anyone's guess is good as to say how much time we all have before it goes off and if we really have a safety margin of appropriate level to avoid a critical dosage.
		It seems a hypernova has never been observed whereas supernova events are now generally categorised as type I or II, with these split into several sub-types.
