Explosion Mechanisms of Massive Stars
H. -Th. Janka, R. Buras, K. Kifonidis +2
One of the central problems in supernova theory is the question how massive stars explode. Understanding the physical processes that drive the explosion is crucial for linking the…
The Mechanism of Core-Collapse Supernovae and the Ejection of Heavy Elements
H. -Th. Janka, R. Buras, M. Rampp
We present here the first results of two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of the neutrino-heating phase in the collapsed core of a 15 solar mass star, where the neutrino tran…
Core Collapse and Then? The Route to Massive Star Explosions
H. -Th. Janka, R. Buras, K. Kifonidis +2
The rapidly growing base of observational data for supernova explosions of massive stars demands theoretical explanations. Central of these is a self-consistent model for the physi…
Core-collapse supernova simulations: Variations of the input physics
M. Rampp, R. Buras, H. -Th. Janka +1
Spherically symmetric simulations of stellar core collapse and post-bounce evolution are used to test the sensitivity of the supernova dynamics to different variations of the input…
