Numerical approaches for multidimensional simulations of stellar explosions
Ke-Jung Chen, Alexander Heger, Ann Almgren
We introduce numerical algorithms for initializing multidimensional simulations of stellar explosions with 1D stellar evolution models. The initial mapping from 1D profiles onto mu…

Superburst Models for Neutron Stars with Hydrogen and Helium-Rich Atmospheres
L. Keek, A. Heger, J. J. M. in 't Zand
Superbursts are rare day-long Type I X-ray bursts due to carbon flashes on accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries. They heat the neutron star envelope such that the bur…
