Supernova Asymmetries and Pulsar Kicks -- Views on Controversial Issues
H. -Th. Janka, L. Scheck, K. Kifonidis +2
Two- and three-dimensional simulations demonstrate that hydrodynamic instabilities can lead to low-mode (l=1,2) asymmetries of the fluid flow in the neutrino-heated layer behind th…
Global Anisotropies in Supernova Explosions and Pulsar Recoil
L. Scheck, T. Plewa, K. Kifonidis +2
We show by two-dimensional and first three-dimensional simulations of neutrino-driven supernova explosions that low (l=1,2) modes can dominate the flow pattern in the convective po…
Multi-dimensional nucleosynthesis calculations of Type II SNe
C. Travaglio, K. Kifonidis, E. Mueller
We investigate explosive nuclear burning in core collapse supernovae by coupling a tracer particle method to one and two-dimensional Eulerian hydrodynamic calculations. Adopting th…
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 First Hours of a Core Collapse Supernova
K. Kifonidis, T. Plewa, H. -Th. Janka +1
New two-dimensional, high-resolution calculations of a core collapse supernova in a 15 Msol blue supergiant are presented, which cover the entire evolution from shock revival until…
The First Five Minutes of a Core Collapse Supernova: Multidimensional Hydrodynamic Models
K. Kifonidis, T. Plewa, H. -Th. Janka +1
We present results of high-resolution two-dimensional simulations which follow the first five minutes of a core collapse supernova explosion in a 15 solar mass blue supergiant prog…
