Implementation of multi-grid Poisson solver in numerical relativity and its application to gravitational collapse of massive star

Kenta Kiuchi, Hirotada Okawa

We develop a new grid-based multi-grid Poisson solver in numerical relativity. We report the performance of the multi-grid Poisson solver in the initial value problems for two-punc…

COSMOS: A numerical relativity code specialized for PBH formation

Chul-Moon Yoo, Hirotada Okawa, Albert Escrivà +7

Primordial black holes (PBHs) are black holes generated in the early universe without having gone through stellar evolution. In the standard formation process, PBHs are formed from…

Dynamics of Binary System around a Supermassive Black Hole :Binary Scattering and Eccentric vZLK Oscillations

Kei-ichi Maeda, Hirotada Okawa

We study the dynamics of a binary orbiting a supermassive black hole (SMBH), focusing on both binary scattering in unbound orbits and eccentric von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (vZLK) oscill…

Bifurcated Impact of Neutrino Fast Flavor Conversion on Core-collapse Supernovae Informed by Multi-angle Neutrino Radiation Hydrodynamics

Ryuichiro Akaho, Hiroki Nagakura, Wakana Iwakami +6

In this {\it Letter}, we present a compelling and robust argument for the roles of neutrino fast flavor conversion (FFC) in the explosion mechanism of core-collapse supernova (CCSN…

Dynamical von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai Oscillations of a Binary on a Spherical Orbit around a Rotating Supermassive Black Hole

Kei-ichi Maeda, Hirotada Okawa

We study the dynamics of a binary system orbiting a rotating supermassive black hole (SMBH). Using Fermi-Walker transport, we construct a local inertial reference frame in the Kerr…

Systematic local simulations of fast neutrino flavor conversions with scattering effects

Milad Delfan Azari, Hirokazu Sasaki, Tomoya Takiwaki +1

We investigate the dynamics of fast neutrino flavor conversions (FFCs) in the one-dimensional (1D) and zero-dimensional (0D) models, in which spatial advection is considered and ig…
