A Comparison of Explosion Energies for Simulated and Observed Core-Collapse Supernovae
Jeremiah W. Murphy, Quintin Mabanta, Joshua C. Dolence
There are now 20 multi-dimensional core-collapse supernova (CCSN) simulations that explode. However, these simulations have explosion energies that are a few times …
Crucial Physical Dependencies of the Core-Collapse Supernova Mechanism
Adam Burrows, David Vartanyan, Joshua C. Dolence +2
We explore with self-consistent 2D F{\sc{ornax}} simulations the dependence of the outcome of collapse on many-body corrections to neutrino-nucleon cross sections, the nucleon-nucl…
An Integral Condition for Core-Collapse Supernova Explosions
Jeremiah W. Murphy, Joshua C. Dolence
We derive an integral condition for core-collapse supernova (CCSN) explosions and use it to construct a new diagnostic of explodability. The fundamental challenge in CCSN theory is…
Two-Dimensional Core-Collapse Supernova Models with Multi-Dimensional Transport
Joshua C. Dolence, Adam Burrows, Weiqun Zhang
We present new two-dimensional (2D) axisymmetric neutrino radiation/hydrodynamic models of core-collapse supernova (CCSN) cores. We use the CASTRO code, which incorporates truly mu…
Dimensional Dependence of the Hydrodynamics of Core-Collapse Supernovae
Joshua C. Dolence, Adam Burrows, Jeremiah W. Murphy +1
The multidimensional character of the hydrodynamics in core-collapse supernova (CCSN) cores is a key facilitator of explosions. Unfortunately, much of this work has necessarily bee…
The Dominance of Neutrino-Driven Convection in Core-Collapse Supernovae
Jeremiah W. Murphy, Joshua C. Dolence, Adam Burrows
Multi-dimensional instabilities have become an important ingredient in core-collapse supernova (CCSN) theory. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the driving mechanism of the…
