FRIB and the GW170817 Kilonova
A. Aprahamian, R. Surman, A. Frebel +45
In July 2018 an FRIB Theory Alliance program was held on the implications of GW170817 and its associated kilonova for r-process nucleosynthesis. Topics of discussion included the a…
Exploring Fundamentally Three-dimensional Phenomena in High-fidelity Simulations of Core-collapse Supernovae
Evan O'Connor, Sean Couch
The details of the physical mechanism that drives core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) remain uncertain. While there is an emerging consensus on the qualitative outcome of detailed CCS…
Global Comparison of Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations in Spherical Symmetry
Evan O'Connor, Robert Bollig, Adam Burrows +10
We present a comparison between several simulation codes designed to study the core-collapse supernova mechanism. We pay close attention to controlling the initial conditions and i…
The Impact of Different Neutrino Transport Methods on Multidimensional Core-collapse Supernova Simulations
Kuo-Chuan Pan, Carlos Mattes, Evan P. O'Connor +3
Neutrinos play a crucial role in the core-collapse supernova (CCSN) explosion mechanism. The requirement of accurately calculating the transport of neutrinos makes simulations of t…
The Antesonic Condition for the Explosion of Core-Collapse Supernovae I: Spherically Symmetric Polytropic Models: Stability & Wind Emergence
Matthias J. Raives, Sean M. Couch, Johnny P. Greco +2
Shock revival in core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) may be due to the neutrino mechanism. While it is known that in a neutrino-powered CCSN, explosion begins when the neutrino lumino…
