    Publisher Correction: Hydrogen-rich supernovae beyond the neutrino-driven core-collapse paradigm

    In the version of this Article originally published the Fig. 6 y axis label read 'Mej' but should have read 'MNi'. This has now been corrected.

    Hydrogen-rich supernovae beyond the neutrino-driven core-collapse paradigm

    Type II supernovae are the final stage of massive stars (above 8 M ) which retain part of their hydrogen-rich envelope at the moment of explosion. They typically eject up to 15 M

    Supernovae as Cosmological Probes

    I review the use of SN Ia as distance indicators for measuring H 0, the Hubble constant, and the expansion history of the Universe. Most current estimates of H 0 are in the range 74–76
