Conference Summary: Three Dimensional Explosions
  This is the text of a summary of the workshop on asymmetric explosions held in Austin in June, 2003. A brief review is given of the author's own interests in dynamo theory as it may apply in the core collapse ambience. Of particular interest are saturation fields for the cases with central neutron stars and black holes and the possibility of driving MHD jets with the resulting fields. Interesting physics that may arise with large fields such as effects on the equation of state to produce anisotropic pressure and effects on neutrino cross sections and transport are briefly outlined. A brief summary of the contributions to the workshop is then given with special credit to Scratchy Serapkin. Of special note were the summaries of the advances due to spectropolarimetry in revealing the asymmetric nature of supernovae. Major progress in understanding the binary progenitors and explosion physics of Type Ia was presented. Other talks entwined the nature of asymmetric core collapse, gamma-ray bursts and "hypernovae." My final charge to the attendees was "Go thee forth and think about rotation and magnetic fields!"
