Abstract: In this paper we deduce some new supercongruences modulo powers of a prime p>3. Let din0,1,ldots,(p−1)/2. We show that sum_{k=0}^{(p-1)/2}frac{�inom{2k}k�inom{2k}{k+d}}{8^k}equiv 0 (mbox{mod} p) mbox{if} dequiv frac{p+1}2 (mbox{mod} 2), and sum_{k=0}^{(p-1)/2}frac{�inom{2k}k�inom{2k}{k+d}}{16^k} equivleft(frac{-1}p ight)+p^2frac{(-1)^d}4E_{p-3}left(d+frac12 ight)pmod{p^3}, where Ep−3(x) denotes the Euler polynomial of degree p−3, and (−) stands for the Legendre symbol. The paper also contains some other results such as sum_{k=0}^{p-1}k^{(1+(frac{-1}p))/2}frac{�inom{6k}{3k}�inom{3k}k}{864^k}equiv0pmod{p^2}.
