An Expanded Set of Los Alamos OPLIB Tables in MESA: Type-1 Rosseland-mean Opacities and Solar Models
Ebraheem Farag, Christopher J. Fontes, F. X. Timmes +11
We present a set of 1194 Type-1 Rosseland-mean opacity tables for four different metallicity mixtures. These new Los Alamos OPLIB atomic radiative opacity tables are an order of ma…
The Role of Inhomogeneities in Supernova Shock Breakout Emission
Chris L. Fryer, Christopher J. Fontes, James S. Warsa +3
The breakout of a supernova blast wave from its progenitor star provides strong constraints on the star and its immediate surroundings. These surroundings are shaped by mass loss f…
Designing Radiation Transport Tests: Simulation-Driven Uncertainty-Quantification of the COAX Temperature Diagnostic
Chris L. Fryer, Abdourahmane Diaw, Chris J. Fontes +6
One of the difficulties in developing accurate numerical models of radiation flow in a coupled radiation-hydrodynamics setting is accurately modeling the transmission across a boun…
Solar Models with dynamic screening and early mass loss tested by helioseismic, astrophysical, and planetary constraints
Suzannah R. Wood, Katie Mussack, Joyce A. Guzik
The faint young Sun paradox remains an open question. Presented here is one possible solution to this apparent inconsistency, a more massive early Sun. Based on conditions on early…
Sound speed and oscillation frequencies for solar models evolved with Los Alamos ATOMIC opacities
Joyce A. Guzik, C. J. Fontes, P. Walczak +3
Los Alamos National Laboratory has calculated a new generation of radiative opacities (OPLIB data using the ATOMIC code) for elements with atomic number Z=1-30 with improved physic…
