The state of matter in simulations of core-collapse supernovae -- Reflections and recent developments
Tobias Fischer, Niels-Uwe Bastian, David Blaschke +7
In this review article we discuss selected developments regarding the role of the equation of state (EOS) in simulations of core-collapse supernovae. There are no first-principle c…
Multi-dimensional Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations with Neutrino Transport
Kuo-Chuan Pan, Matthias Liebendörfer, Matthias Hempel +1
We present multi-dimensional core-collapse supernova simulations using the Isotropic Diffusion Source Approximation (IDSA) for the neutrino transport and a modified potential for g…
Explosion Dynamics of Parametrized Spherically Symmetric Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations
Kevin Ebinger, Sanjana Sinha, Carla Fröhlich +6
We report on a method, PUSH, for triggering core-collapse supernova (CCSN) explosions of massive stars in spherical symmetry. This method provides a framework to study many importa…
Equations of state for supernovae and compact stars
M. Oertel, M. Hempel, T. Klähn +1
We review various theoretical approaches for the equation of state (EoS) of dense matter, relevant for the description of core-collapse supernovae, compact stars and compact star m…
Expected impact from weak reactions with light nuclei in core-collapse supernova simulations
T. Fischer, G. Martínez-Pinedo, M. Hempel +4
We study the role of light nuclear clusters in simulations of core-collapse supernovae. Expressions for the reaction rates are developed for a large selection of charged current ab…
Two-Dimensional Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations with the Isotropic Diffusion Source Approximation for Neutrino Transport
Kuo-Chuan Pan, Matthias Liebendörfer, Matthias Hempel +1
The neutrino mechanism of core-collapse supernova is investigated via non-relativistic, two-dimensional (2D), neutrino radiation-hydrodynamic simulations. For the transport of elec…
