Low Mach Number Modeling of Type Ia Supernovae. IV. White Dwarf Convection

M. Zingale, A. S. Almgren, J. B. Bell +2

We present the first three-dimensional, full-star simulations of convection in a white dwarf preceding a Type Ia supernova, specifically the last few hours before ignition. For the…

Search for Astrophysical Neutrino Point Sources at Super-Kamiokande

E. Thrane

It has been hypothesized that large fluxes of neutrinos may be created in astrophysical "cosmic accelerators." The primary background for a search for astrophysical neutrinos comes…

Search for Neutrinos from GRB 080319B at Super-Kamiokande

Kamiokande Collaboration, E. Thrane

We perform a search for neutrinos coincident with GRB 080319B, the brightest GRB observed to date, in a +/- 1,000 s window. No statistically significant coincidences were observed…

The Behavior of Matter under Extreme Conditions

F. Paerels, M. Mendez, M. Agueros +29

The cores of neutron stars harbor the highest matter densities known to occur in nature, up to several times the densities in atomic nuclei. Similarly, magnetic field strengths can…

Identifying Galactic PeVatrons with Neutrinos

M. C. Gonzalez-Garcia, Francis Halzen, Soumya Mohapatra

We perform a realistic evaluation of the potential of IceCube, a kilometer-scale neutrino detector under construction at the South Pole, to detect neutrinos in the direction of the…
