Hydrodynamics of core-collapse supernovae and their progenitors

B Müller - Living Reviews in Computational Astrophysics, 2020 - Springer
Multi-dimensional fluid flow plays a paramount role in the explosions of massive stars as
core-collapse supernovae. In recent years, three-dimensional (3D) simulations of these …

period of the big bang to current stellar evolution being a unique messenger of the fusion …

Implications from GW170817 and I-Love-Q relations for relativistic hybrid stars

V Paschalidis, K Yagi, D Alvarez-Castillo, DB Blaschke… - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
Gravitational wave observations of GW170817 placed bounds on the tidal deformabilities of

Fast neutrino flavor conversions in a supernova: Emergence, evolution, and effects

Z **ong, MR Wu, M George, CY Lin, NK Largani… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
Fast flavor conversions (FFCs) of neutrinos, which can occur in core-collapse supernovae
(CCSNe), are multiangle effects. They depend on the angular distribution of the neutrino's …

Supernova axions convert to gamma rays in magnetic fields of progenitor stars

CA Manzari, Y Park, BR Safdi, I Savoray - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
It has long been established that axions could have been produced within the nascent proto-
neutron star formed following the type II supernova SN1987A, escaped the star due to their …

Muons in supernovae: implications for the axion-muon coupling

R Bollig, W DeRocco, PW Graham, HT Janka - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
The high temperature and electron degeneracy attained during a supernova allow for the
formation of a large muon abundance within the core of the resulting protoneutron star. If …

Constraining the onset density of the hadron-quark phase transition with gravitational-wave observations

S Blacker, NUF Bastian, A Bauswein, DB Blaschke… - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We study the possible occurrence of the hadron-quark phase transition (PT) during the
merging of neutron star binaries by hydrodynamical simulations employing a set of …

Observable signatures of enhanced axion emission from protoneutron stars

T Fischer, P Carenza, B Fore, M Giannotti, A Mirizzi… - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We perform general relativistic one-dimensional supernova (SN) simulations to identify
observable signatures of enhanced axion emission from the pion-induced reaction π-+ p→ …

Explosion Mechanism of Core-collapse Supernovae: Role of the Si/Si–O Interface

L Boccioli, L Roberti, M Limongi… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a simple criterion to predict the explodability of massive stars based on the
density and entropy profiles before collapse. If a pronounced density jump is present near …
