An Investigation of Neutrino-Driven Convection and the Core Collapse Supernova Mechanism Using Multigroup Neutrino Transport
A. Mezzacappa, A. C. Calder, S. W. Bruenn +4
We investigate neutrino-driven convection in core collapse supernovae and its ramifications for the explosion mechanism. We begin with an ``optimistic'' 15 solar mass precollapse m…
Deciphering Core Collapse Supernovae: Is Convection the Key? I. Prompt Convection
A. Mezzacappa, A. C. Calder, S. W. Bruenn +4
We couple two-dimensional hydrodynamics to detailed one-dimensional multigroup flux-limited diffusion neutrino transport to investigate prompt convection in core collapse supernova…
Axisymmetric circumstellar interaction in supernovae
John M. Blondin, P. Lundqvist, Roger A. Chevalier
Multiwavelength observations of Type II supernovae have shown evidence for the interaction of supernovae with the dense slow winds from the red supergiant progenitor stars. Observa…
