DESCRIPTION:The last decade has opened up a new parameter space in time-do
 main astronomy with the discovery of extragalactic transients defying our 
 understanding of how stars explode. Some of those represent the brightest 
 event of the transient zoo - called superluminous supernova – while many
  others show different degrees of interactions with the material expelled 
 before the death of the star.\nThe collected dataset and the understanding
  of such events have surpassed any initial expectations and opened up a fu
 ture exploding with potential\, spanning from novel tools of high-redshift
  cosmological investigation to new insights into the final stages of massi
 ve stars.\n\nJoin me in this seminar as we embark on a retrospective journ
 ey\, exploring the unforeseen dimensions of these cosmic phenomena. Be rea
 dy for a sneak peek into the cosmic theatre\, where the stage is set for t
 he next decade's astronomical wonders. Discover how these observations cou
 ld reshape our understanding of stellar explosions and connected research 
 areas.
