The impact of fallback on the compact remnants and chemical yields of core-collapse supernovae
Conrad Chan, Bernhard Mueller, Alexander Heger
Fallback in core-collapse supernovae plays a crucial role in determining the properties of the compact remnants and of the ejecta composition. We perform three-dimensional simulati…
A Novel Multi-Dimensional Boltzmann Neutrino Transport Scheme for Core-Collapse Supernovae
Conrad Chan, Bernhard Mueller
We introduce a new discrete-ordinate scheme for solving the general relativistic Boltzmann transport equation in the context of core-collapse supernovae. Our algorithm avoids the n…
Fallback accretion powered supernova light curves based on a neutrino-driven explosion simulation of a 40 Msun star
Takashi J. Moriya, Bernhard Muller, Conrad Chan +2
We present synthetic light curves of fallback-powered supernovae based on a neutrino-driven explosion of a 40 Msun zero-metallicity star with significant fallback accretion onto a…
Three-Dimensional Simulations of Neutrino-Driven Core-Collapse Supernovae from Low-Mass Single and Binary Star Progenitors
B. Müller, T. M. Tauris, A. Heger +6
We present a suite of seven 3D supernova simulations of non-rotating low-mass progenitors using multi-group neutrino transport. Our simulations cover single star progenitors with z…
An FFT-based Solution Method for the Poisson Equation on 3D Spherical Polar Grids
Bernhard Müller, Conrad Chan
The solution of the Poisson equation is a ubiquitous problem in computational astrophysics. Most notably, the treatment of self-gravitating flows involves the Poisson equation for…
Black hole formation and fallback during the supernova explosion of a star
Conrad Chan, Bernhard Müller, Alexander Heger +2
Fallback in core-collapse supernovae is considered a major ingredient for explaining abundance anomalies in metal-poor stars and the natal kicks and spins of black holes (BHs). We…
