Dependence of Convective Boundary Mixing on Boundary Properties and Turbulence Strength
A. Cristini, R. Hirschi, C. Meakin +3
Convective boundary mixing is one of the major uncertainties in stellar evolution. In order to study its dependence on boundary properties and turbulence strength in a controlled w…

The First 3D Simulations of Carbon Burning in a Massive Star
Andrea Cristini, Casey Meakin, Raphael Hirschi +3
We present the first detailed three-dimensional hydrodynamic implicit large eddy simulations of turbulent convection for carbon burning. The simulations start with an initial radia…
