Assuming that the neutrino luminosity from the neutron star core is sufficiently high to drive supernova explosions by the neutrino-heating mechanism, we show that low-mode (l = 1, 2) convection can develop from random seed perturbations…
Accurate description of neutrino opacities is central both to the core-collapse supernova (CCSN) phenomenon and to the validity of the explosion mechanism itself. In this work, we study in a systematic fashion the role of a variety of…
