Readership: Scientists working in the field of supernova and gamma-ray bursts research; graduate and undergraduate students in astronomy and astrophysics; amateur astronomers; general public who is interested in astronomy.

The discovery of supernova (SN) 1987A has led to the rise of a new branch in astronomy and astrophysics which is solely devoted to this object. In this proceedings book, all aspects of the broad SN 1987A research topics are covered and all observed wavelength regimes are discussed. The proceedings book further includes other SNe of all types, SN cosmology and Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), with emphasis on SN/GRB connections.
