A Systematic Survey of the Effects of Wind Mass Loss Algorithms on the Evolution of Single Massive Stars
Mathieu Renzo, Christian D. Ott, Steven N. Shore +1
Mass loss is a key uncertainty in the evolution of massive stars. Stellar evolution calculations must employ parametric algorithms for mass loss, and usually only include stellar w…
Numerical simulations of stellar collapse in scalar-tensor theories of gravity
Davide Gerosa, Ulrich Sperhake, Christian D. Ott
We present numerical-relativity simulations of spherically symmetric core collapse and compact-object formation in scalar-tensor theories of gravity. The additional scalar degree o…
Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers with a Hot Nuclear Equation of State: Outflow and Neutrino-Cooled Disk for a Low-Mass, High-Spin Case
M. Brett Deaton, Matthew D. Duez, Francois Foucart +6
Neutrino emission significantly affects the evolution of the accretion tori formed in black hole-neutron star mergers. It removes energy from the disk, alters its composition, and…
Correlated Gravitational Wave and Neutrino Signals from General-Relativistic Rapidly Rotating Iron Core Collapse
C. D. Ott, E. Abdikamalov, E. O'Connor +6
We present results from a new set of 3D general-relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of rotating iron core collapse. We assume octant symmetry and focus on axisymmetric collapse,…
New Aspects and Boundary Conditions of Core-Collapse Supernova Theory
C. D. Ott, E. P. O'Connor, B. Dasgupta
Core-collapse supernovae are among Nature's grandest explosions. They are powered by the energy released in gravitational collapse and include a rich set of physical phenomena invo…
Computational Models of Stellar Collapse and Core-Collapse Supernovae
C. D. Ott, E. Schnetter, A. Burrows +3
Core-collapse supernovae are among Nature's most energetic events. They mark the end of massive star evolution and pollute the interstellar medium with the life-enabling ashes of t…
