This comprehensive book delves into the interdisciplinary realms of nuclear physics, supernovae, and neutron star physics. It explores the captivating physics and astrophysics behind the awe-inspiring supernova explosions, beginning with the collapse of massive stars and culminating in the formation of neutron stars or black holes. The text discusses recent advancements in our understanding of core collapse supernovae (CCSN), including their observational implications for future neutrino detections from CCSN explosions. Additionally, it focuses on the novel phases of dense nuclear matter, their compositions, and equation of state (EoS) across a wide range of baryon densities, which are crucial for understanding supernovae and neutron stars. The book also delves into the multi-messenger astrophysics of binary neutron star mergers, such as GW170817, and its connection to EoS through tidal deformability. Furthermore, it explores the synthesis of elements heavier than iron in the supernova and neutron star environment through the rapid (r)-process, with a special emphasis on the nucleosynthesis in the ejected material from GW170817. This monograph is designed to serve as a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers in the field of nuclear astrophysics.
