The only means to get direct and immediate information about the
engine of core collapse supernovae is from observations of neutrinos
emitted by the forming neutron star, and through gravitational
waves. The latter are emitted when the explosion involves
time-dependent asphericities because of rotation, magnetic fields,
non-radial flow, and anisotropic neutrino emission. In my talk I...

SkyMapper is a new widefield 1.35m telescope located in Australia dedicated to
surveying the southern sky. Its UV optimised 5.7 sq-degree FOV will map the entirety
of the southern sky over the next 5 years, and will undertake specific programs to
discover and monitor supernovae. In addition to the study of core collapse events
directly, SkyMapper offers the ability to study core collapse...

The next generation of large ground-based telescopes will essentially increase the
light-gathering power and the angular resolution. The talk will muse about possible
directions
supernova research may take when these telescopes become available. Predicting research a
decade into the future is alway risky, but it is possible explore the new parameter
space, which
will open with these facilities.
