Rotation-induced Relaxation of Supernova Constraints on Axionlike Particles

Tsurugi Takata, Kanji Mori, Ko Nakamura +1

We study how rotation modifies the constraints on MeV-scale axion-like particles (ALPs) coupled to photons derived from SN 1987A. We constrain the ALP parameter space based on both…

Potassium abundances in extremely metal poor stars: Implications for nucleosynthesis in the final stages of massive star evolution

M. N. Ishigaki, N. Tominaga, W. Aoki +5

We present a potassium (K) abundance analysis in extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars based on high-resolution () spectra obtained with the High Dispersion Spectrograph on…

Inhomogeneous stellar mixing in the final hours before the Cassiopeia A supernova

Toshiki Sato, Kai Matsunaga, Hiroyuki Uchida +10

Understanding stars and their evolution is a key goal of astronomical research and has long been a focus of human interest. In recent years, theorists have paid much attention to t…

Progenitor Dependence of Neutrino-driven Supernova Explosions with the Aid of Heavy Axion-like Particles

Tsurugi Takata, Kanji Mori, Ko Nakamura +1

We perform spherically symmetric simulations of core-collapse supernovae with the aid of heavy axion-like particles (ALPs) which interact with photons and redistribute energy withi…

Three-dimensional Magneto-hydrodynamic Simulations of Core-collapse Supernovae: I. Hydrodynamic evolution and protoneutron star properties

Ko Nakamura, Tomoya Takiwaki, Jin Matsumoto +1

We present results from three-dimensional, magnetohydrodynamic, core-collapse simulations of sixteen progenitors following until 0.5 s after bounce. We use non-rotating solar-metal…

Three-dimensional simulation of a core-collapse supernova for a binary star progenitor of SN 1987A

Ko Nakamura, Tomoya Takiwaki, Kei Kotake

We present results from a self-consistent, non-rotating core-collapse supernova simulation in three spatial dimensions using a binary evolution progenitor model of SN 1987A by Urus…
