3D simulations of a complete convective silicon shell burning phase
V. Varma, R. Hirschi, F. Rizzuti +7
We present 3D hydrodynamic simulations of a complete silicon shell burning phase until fuel exhaustion at the end of the evolution of a 14 core-collapse supernova progenit…

3D simulations of convective shell Neon-burning in a massive star
C. Georgy, F. Rizzuti, R. Hirschi +6
The treatment of convection remains a major weakness in the modelling of stellar evolution with one-dimensional (1D) codes. The ever increasing computing power makes now possible t…
