Title |
Core-collapse supernovae and their signals from numerical simulation | |||||

Abstract |
Most (if not all) supernovae from massive stars ultimately derive their power from the gravitational potential energy released by the collapse of their cores to neutron stars (and later potentially to black holes). I will discuss our efforts to capture the physics of the neutrino mechanism, in which energy is transferred by neutrinos to overlying material, with our Chimera code. We have demonstrated robust explosions by the neutrino mechanism in 2D and explosion delay in 3D. Finally, I will discuss the signals from the mechanism itself in the deep core (gravitational waves and neutrinos) and the bulk ejecta (explosion energy, element synthesis, etc.) that allow us to asses simulations with current and future observational data. |
