Systematic Analysis of the Effects of Mode Conversion on Thermal Radiation from Neutron Stars
Akihiro Yatabe, Shoichi Yamada
In this paper, we systematically calculate the polarization in soft X-rays emitted from magnetized neutron stars, which are expected to be observed by the next-generation X-ray sat…
Validation of Radiative Transfer Computation with Monte Carlo Method for Ultra-Relativistic Background Flow
Ayako Ishii, Naofumi Ohnishi, Hiroki Nagakura +2
We developed a three-dimensional radiative transfer code for an ultra-relativistic background flow-field by using the Monte Carlo (MC) method in the context of gamma-ray burst (GRB…
A new equation of state for core-collapse supernovae based on realistic nuclear forces and including a full nuclear ensemble
S. Furusawa, H. Togashi, H. Nagakura +4
We have constructed a nuclear equation of state (EOS) that includes a full nuclear ensemble for use in core-collapse supernova simulations. It is based on the EOS for uniform nucle…
A Detailed Comparison of Multi-Dimensional Boltzmann Neutrino Transport Methods in Core-Collapse Supernovae
Sherwood Richers, Hiroki Nagakura, Christian D. Ott +3
The mechanism driving core-collapse supernovae is sensitive to the interplay between matter and neutrino radiation. However, neutrino radiation transport is very difficult to simul…
A Parametric Study of the Acoustic Mechanism for Core-Collapse Supernovae
A. Harada, H. Nagakura, W. Iwakami +1
We investigate the criterion for the acoustic mechanism to work successfully in core-collapse supernovae. The acoustic mechanism is an alternative to the neutrino-heating mechanism…
Neutrino emissions in all flavors up to the pre-bounce of massive stars and the possibility of their detections
Chinami Kato, Hiroki Nagakura, Shun Furusawa +5
This paper is a sequel to our previous one (Kato et al.2015), which calculated the luminosities and spectra of electron-type anti-neutrinos ('s) from the progenitors of co…
