Core-Collapse Supernova Explosions: Morning - 1
- Yutaka Hirai (University of Notre Dame/Tohoku University)
Core-collapse supernova is an explosion event of a dying massive star at the end of its lifetime. The explosion mechanism has not been well-understood due to large numerical and physical complexity. Now that KAGRA project and Hyper-Kamiokande project are launched in Japan, we need to construct a precise supernova model to capture all possible astrophysical information from a nearby supernova...
Systematic studies of core-collapse supernovae have been conducted based on hundreds of one-dimensional artificial models (O'Connor & Ott 2011,2013; Ugliano et al. 2013, Ertl et al. 2015) and two-dimensional self-consistent simulations (Nakamura et al. 2015;2019, Burrows & Vartanyan 2020). We have performed three-dimensional core-collapse simulations for 16 progenitor models covering ZAMS mass...
