Theory of Core-Collapse Supernovae

H. -Th. Janka, K. Langanke, A. Marek +2

Advances in our understanding and the modeling of stellar core-collapse and supernova explosions over the past 15 years are reviewed, concentrating on the evolution of hydrodynamic…

Nucleosynthesis-relevant conditions in neutrino-driven supernova outflows. I. Spherically symmetric hydrodynamic simulations

A. Arcones, H. -Th. Janka, L. Scheck

We investigate the behavior and consequences of the reverse shock that terminates the supersonic expansion of the baryonic wind which is driven by neutrino heating off the surface…

Relativistic neutron star merger simulations with non-zero temperature equations of state I. Variation of binary parameters and equation of state

R. Oechslin, H. -T. Janka, A. Marek

An extended set of binary neutron star (NS) merger simulations is performed with an approximative conformally flat treatment of general relativity to systematically investigate the…

Nucleosynthesis in neutrino heated matter: The vp-process and the r-process

G. Martínez-Pinedo, A. Kelic, K. Langanke +11

This manuscript reviews recent progress in our understanding of the nucleosynthesis of medium and heavy elements in supernovae. Recent hydrodynamical models of core-collapse supern…

Neutrino pair annihilation near accreting, stellar-mass black holes

R. Birkl, M. -A. Aloy, H. -Th. Janka +1

We investigate the energy-momentum deposition due to neutrino-antineutrino annihilation in the vicinity of axisymmetric, accreting black holes (BHs) by numerically ray-tracing neut…

Instability of a stalled accretion shock: evidence for the advective-acoustic cycle

T. Foglizzo, P. Galletti, L. Scheck +1

We analyze the linear stability of a stalled accretion shock in a perfect gas with a parametrized cooling function L ~ rho^{beta-alpha} P^alpha. The instability is dominated by the…
