SNSPH: A Parallel 3-D Smoothed Particle Radiation Hydrodynamics Code
C. L. Fryer, G. Rockefeller, M. S. Warren
We provide a description of the SNSPH code--a parallel 3-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics code implementing treecode gravity, smooth particle hydrodynamics, and flux-limited dif…
Constraints on the Progenitor of Cassiopeia A
Patrick A. Young, Chris L. Fryer, Aimee Hungerford +6
We compare a suite of 3D explosion calculations and stellar models incorporating advanced physics with observational constraints on the progenitor of Cassiopeia A. We consider bina…
Spin-Induced Disk Precession in Sagittarius A*
Gabriel Rockefeller, Christopher L. Fryer, Fulvio Melia
In Sgr A* at the Galactic center, by far the closest and easiest supermassive black hole we can study, the observational evidence is increasingly pointing to the presence of a comp…
Gamma-Rays from Single Lobe Supernova Explosions
A. L. Hungerford, C. L. Fryer, G. M. Rockefeller
Multi-dimensional simulations of the neutrino-driven mechanism behind core-collapse supernovae have long shown that the explosions from this mechanism would be asymmetric. Recently…
The X-ray Ridge Surrounding Sgr A* at the Galactic Center
Gabriel Rockefeller, Christopher L. Fryer, Frederick K. Baganoff +1
We present the first detailed simulation of the interaction between the supernova explosion that produced Sgr A East and the wind-swept inner ~ 2-pc region at the Galactic center.…
The Sgr B2 X-ray Echo of the Galactic Center Supernova Explosion that Produced Sgr A East
C. L. Fryer, G. Rockefeller, A. Hungerford +1
The possible impact Sgr A East is having on the Galactic center has fueled speculation concerning its age and the energetics of the supernova explosion that produced it. We have ca…
