A review is given of various theoretical approaches for the equation of state (EoS) of dense
matter, relevant for the description of core-collapse supernovae, compact stars, and compact …

Nonspherical mass motions are a generic feature of core-collapse supernovae, and
hydrodynamic instabilities play a crucial role in the explosion mechanism. The first …

We calculate the gravitational-wave (GW) signatures of detailed three-dimensional (3D) core-
collapse supernova simulations spanning a range of massive stars. Most of the simulations …

Neutrinos play a crucial role in the collapse and explosion of massive stars, governing the
infall dynamics of the stellar core, triggering and fueling the explosion and driving the …

The details of the physical mechanism that drives core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe)
remain uncertain. While there is an emerging consensus on the qualitative outcome of …

Supernova theory, numerical and analytic, has made remarkable progress in the past
decade. This progress was made possible by more sophisticated simulation tools, especially …

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 …

Many of the currently available equations of state for core-collapse supernova simulations
give large neutron star radii and do not provide large enough neutron star masses, both of …

We study the gravitational wave (GW) signal from eight new 3D core-collapse supernova
simulations. We show that the signal is dominated by f-and g-mode oscillations of the …

The nuclear symmetry energy characterizes the variation of the binding energy as the
neutron to proton ratio of a nuclear system is varied. This is one of the most important …
