Rotational Effects on Neutrino Emission in Core-collapse Supernovae
Michael A. Pajkos, Siddharth Boyeneni, Oliver Eggenberger Andersen
All stars rotate. While magnetic braking slows massive stars, the effect a stellar companion has on stellar rotation is still being explored. To prepare for future observations fro…
The Influence of Muons, Pions, and Trapped Neutrinos on Neutron Star Mergers
Michael A. Pajkos, Elias R. Most
The merger of two neutron stars probes dense matter in a hot, neutrino-trapped regime. In this work, we investigate how fully accounting for pions, muons, and muon-type neutrinos i…
Characterizing the Directionality of Gravitational Wave Emission from Matter Motions within Core-collapse Supernovae
Michael A. Pajkos, Steven J. VanCamp, Kuo-Chuan Pan +3
We analyze the directional dependence of the gravitational wave (GW) emission from 15 3D neutrino radiation hydrodynamic simulations of core-collapse supernovae. Using spin weighte…
Determining the Structure of Rotating Massive Stellar Cores with Gravitational Waves
Michael A. Pajkos, MacKenzie L. Warren, Sean M. Couch +2
The gravitational wave (GW) signal resulting from stellar core collapse encodes a wealth of information about the physical parameters of the progenitor star and the resulting core-…
Features of Accretion-phase Gravitational-wave Emission from Two-dimensional Rotating Core-collapse Supernovae
Michael A. Pajkos, Sean M. Couch, Kuo-Chuan Pan +1
We explore the influence of progenitor mass and rotation on the gravitational-wave (GW) emission from core-collapse supernovae, during the postbounce, preexplosion, accretion-phase…
