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…
CASTRO: A New Compressible Astrophysical Solver. III. Multigroup Radiation Hydrodynamics
W. Zhang, L. Howell, A. Almgren +3
We present a formulation for multigroup radiation hydrodynamics that is correct to order using the comoving-frame approach and the flux-limited diffusion approximation. We…
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…
An Investigation into the Character of Pre-Explosion Core-Collapse Supernova Shock Motion
Adam Burrows, Joshua C. Dolence, Jeremiah W. Murphy
We investigate the structure of the stalled supernova shock in both 2D and 3D and explore the differences in the effects of neutrino heating and the standing accretion shock instab…
A New Monte Carlo Method for Time-Dependent Neutrino Radiation Transport
Ernazar Abdikamalov, Adam Burrows, Christian D. Ott +4
Monte Carlo approaches to radiation transport have several attractive properties such as simplicity of implementation, high accuracy, and good parallel scaling. Moreover, Monte Car…
