We study the evolution of supernova remnants in a low-metallicity medium $Z/Z_{\odot} = 10^{-4}$ -- $10^{-2}$ in the early universe, using one-dimensional hydrodynamics with non-equilibrium chemistry. Once a post-shock layer is able to cool…
Recent HST observations of the Crab Nebula show filamentary structures that appear to originate from the Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instability operating on the supernova ejecta accelerated by the pulsar-driven wind. In order to understand the…
We present new two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamic simulations of supernova shock breakout from red supergiants using the $\texttt{CASTRO}$ code. Our progenitors are 20 and 25 M$_{\odot}$ solar-metallicity stars evolved from the zero-age…
By direct hydrodynamic simulation, using the Piecewise Parabolic Method (PPM) code PROMETHEUS, we study the properties of a convective oxygen burning shell in a SN 1987A progenitor star prior to collapse. The convection is too heterogeneous…
Understanding the explosion mechanism and hydrodynamic evolution of core-collapse supernovae is a long-standing quest in astronomy. The asymmetries caused by the explosion are encoded into the line profiles which appear in the nebular phase…
We present a first study of the progenitor star dependence of the three-dimensional (3D) neutrino mechanism of core-collapse supernovae. We employ full 3D general-relativistic multi-group neutrino radiation-hydrodynamics and simulate the…
When collapse of the iron core in a massive red or yellow supergiant does not lead to an energetic supernova, a significant fraction of the convective hydrogen envelope will fall in towards the black hole formed from the collapsing core.…
Our understanding of stellar structure and evolution coming from one-dimensional (1D) stellar models is limited by uncertainties related to multi-dimensional processes taking place in stellar interiors. 1D models, however, can now be tested…
We perform three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of aspherical core-collapse supernovae focusing on the matter mixing in SN 1987A. The impacts of four progenitor (pre-supernova) models and parameterized aspherical explosions are…
We present results from a self-consistent, non-rotating core-collapse supernova simulation in three spatial dimensions using a binary evolution progenitor model of SN 1987A by Urushibata et al. (2018). This 18.3 solar-mass progenitor model…
We present a new grid of presupernova models of massive stars extending in mass between 13 and 120 Msun, covering four metallicities (i.e. [Fe/H]=0, -1, -2 and -3) and three initial rotation velocities (i.e. 0, 150 and 300 km/s). The…
We study the three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamics of the post-core-bounce phase of the collapse of a 27-solar-mass star and pay special attention to the development of the standing accretion shock instability (SASI) and neutrino-driven…
We performed 3D hydrodynamic simulations of the inner $\approx 50\%$ radial extent of a $25\ \mathrm{M_\odot}$ star in the early phase of the main sequence and investigate core convection and internal gravity waves in the core-envelope…
Young massive stars in compact stellar clusters could end their evolution as core-collapse supernovae a few million years after the cluster was built. The blast wave of a supernova propagates through the inner cluster region with multiple…
Young supernova remnants such as Tycho generally exhibit a bright circular clumpy shell in both radio and X-ray emission. For several young remnants, various arguments suggest that the magnetic field is larger than can be explained by…
We evolve models of rotating massive stars up to the stage of iron core collapse using the MESA code and find a shell with a mixed composition of primarily helium and oxygen in some cases. In the parameter space of initial masses of 13-40…
Interstellar bubbles appear to be smaller in observations than expected from calculations. Instabilities at the shell boundaries create three-dimensional ef- fects, and are probably responsible for part of this discrepancy. We investigate…
The turbulent burning of nuclei is a common phenomenon in the evolution of stars. Here we examine a challenging case: the merging of the neon and oxygen burning shells in a 23 M$_{\odot}$ star. A previously unknown quasi-steady state is…
The well-studied type IIP SN 1987A, produced by the explosion of a blue supergiant (BSG) star, is a touchstone for massive-star evolution, simulations of neutrino-driven explosions, and modeling of light curves and spectra. In the framework…
Core-collapse supernovae, the culmination of massive stellar evolution, are spectacular astronomical events and the principle actors in the story of our elemental origins. Our understanding of these events, while still incomplete, centers…
