| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The theory of stellar evolution forms the basis of astronomy. However, the nature of massive star evolution has not been clarified. In this project, we have performed comprehensive study on the stellar evolution and the supernova (SN) explosoin, both in observatoins and throry. Our goals were the following: (1) uncovering the nature of stellar evolution in the final phase through SN observations, (2) connecting the nature of the final stellar evolution and that of the SN explosion, and (3) comprehensively understanding the unclarified issues in the massive star evolution. We have obtained various new insight, some of which are hilighted below: we discovered that a large fraction of massive stars experience a dinamically-driven huge mass loss in the final century before the SN. Further, we have discovered the moment of the explosion for one SN, and a very high ejecta velocity for an SN associaetd with a gamm-ray burst, among other outcomes from this project.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
大質量星の進化は天文学の様々な分野における基礎であると同時に、進化最期に引き起こされる大爆発である超新星は様々な物理過程・物理法則の研究の場となる。本課題では、大質量星の最終進化と超新星爆発の未解明問題について、理論・観測を融合させ様々な視点から研究を行った。大質量星の大部分は爆発直前に大規模な質量放出を伴うという発見や、長年理論的に予測されていたが確固たる証拠の無かったショックブレークアウト現象の発見など、大質量終末期進化と超新星の理解の基礎となる様々な知見を得た。
