Chimera: A massively parallel code for core-collapse supernova simulation
Stephen W. Bruenn, John M. Blondin, W. Raphael Hix +9
We provide a detailed description of the Chimera code, a code developed to model core collapse supernovae in multiple spatial dimensions. The core collapse supernova explosion mech…
Implications for Post-Processing Nucleosynthesis of Core-Collapse Supernova Models with Lagrangian Particles
J. Austin Harris, W. Raphael Hix, Merek A. Chertkow +3
We investigate core-collapse supernova (CCSN) nucleosynthesis with self-consistent, axisymmetric (2D) simulations performed using the radiation-hydrodynamics code Chimera. Computat…
Recent Progress on Ascertaining the Core Collapse Supernova Explosion Mechanism
Anthony Mezzacappa, Stephen W. Bruenn, Eric J. Lentz +8
We have been working within the fundamental paradigm that core collapse supernovae (CCSNe) may be neutrino driven, since the first suggestion of this by Colgate and White nearly fi…
Advancing Nucleosynthesis in Self-consistent, Multidimensional Models of Core-Collapse Supernovae
J. Austin Harris, W. Raphael Hix, Merek A. Chertkow +7
We investigate core-collapse supernova (CCSN) nucleosynthesis in polar axisymmetric simulations using the multidimensional radiation hydrodynamics code CHIMERA. Computational costs…
The Development of Explosions in Axisymmetric Ab Initio Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations of 12-25 Stars
Stephen W. Bruenn, Eric J. Lentz, W. Raphael Hix +9
We present four ab initio axisymmetric core-collapse supernova simulations for 12, 15, 20, and 25 progenitors. All of the simulations yield explosions and have been evolv…
Two- and three-dimensional simulations of core-collapse supernovae with CHIMERA
Eric J. Lentz, Stephen W. Bruenn, J. Austin Harris +8
Ascertaining the core-collapse supernova mechanism is a complex, and yet unsolved, problem dependent on the interaction of general relativity, hydrodynamics, neutrino transport, ne…
Axisymmetric Ab Initio Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations of 12-25 M_sol Stars
Stephen W. Bruenn, Anthony Mezzacappa, W. Raphael Hix +7
We present an overview of four ab initio axisymmetric core-collapse supernova simulations employing detailed spectral neutrino transport computed with our CHIMERA code and initiate…
Core Collapse Supernovae using CHIMERA: Gravitational Radiation from Non-Rotating Progenitors
Konstantin Yakunin, Pedro Marronetti, Anthony Mezzacappa +8
The CHIMERA code is a multi-dimensional multi-physics engine dedicated primarily to the simulation of core collapse supernova explosions. One of the most important aspects of these…
Gravitational Waves from Core Collapse Supernovae
Konstantin N Yakunin, Pedro Marronetti, Anthony Mezzacappa +8
We present the gravitational wave signatures for a suite of axisymmetric core collapse supernova models with progenitors masses between 12 and 25 solar masses. These models are dis…
