Abstract

The connection between supernovae and neutron stars goes back to the seminal publications by W. Baade and F. Zwicky in 1934, in which they coined both the term “super-nova”, suggested a connection between cosmic rays and “super-novae” and postulated that a “super-nova” event “represents the transition of an ordinary star into a neutron star”.
