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…
Two- and three-dimensional simulations demonstrate that hydrodynamic instabilities can lead to low-mode (l=1,2) asymmetries of the fluid flow in the neutrino-heated layer behind the supernova shock. This provides a natural explanation for…
The collapse of a massive star's core, followed by a neutrino-driven, asymmetric supernova explosion, can naturally lead to pulsar recoils and neutron star kicks. Here, we present a two-dimensional, radiation-hydrodynamic simulation in…
By means of two-dimensional (2D) simulations we study hydrodynamic instabilities during the first seconds of neutrino-driven supernova explosions, using a PPM hydrodynamics code, supplemented with a gray, non-equilibrium approximation of…
Two-dimensional simulations of strongly anisotropic supernova explosions of a nonrotating 15 solar mass blue supergiant progenitor are presented, which follow the hydrodynamic evolution from times shortly after shock formation until hours…
One- and two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of neutrino-driven supernova explosions are discussed. The simulations cover the phase between the stagnation of the prompt shock and about one second after core bounce. Systematic…
We present results from a suite of axisymmetric, core-collapse supernova simulations in which hydrodynamic recoil from an asymmetric explosion produces large proto-neutron star (PNS) velocities. We use the adaptive-mesh refinement code…
We present 3D simulations of supernova (SN) explosions of nonrotating stars, triggered by the neutrino-heating mechanism with a suitable choice of the core-neutrino luminosity. Our results show that asymmetric mass ejection caused by…
During the core bounce of a supernova collapse resonant active-to-active ($\nu_a \to \nu_a$), as well as active-to-sterile ($\nu_a \to \nu_s$) neutrino ($\nu$) oscillations can take place. Besides, over this phase weak magnetism increases…
We show that neutrino-driven pulsar kicks can increase the energy of the supernova shock. The observed large velocities of pulsars are believed to originate in the supernova explosion, either from asymmetries in the ejecta or from an…
We present results from an ab initio three-dimensional, multi-physics core collapse supernova simulation for the case of a 15 M progenitor. Our simulation includes multi-frequency neutrino transport with state-of-the-art neutrino…
We show that when a supernova explodes, a nearby pulsar signal goes through a very specific change. The observed period first changes smoothly, then is followed by a sudden change in the time derivative. A stable millisecond pulsar can…
Effects of small-scale fluctuations in the neutrino radiation on core-collapse supernova explosions are examined. Through a parameter study with a fixed radiation field of neutrinos, we find substantial differences between the results of…
Supernovae explosions of massive stars are nowadays believed to result from a two-step process, with an initial gravitational core collapse followed by an expansion of matter after a bouncing on the core. This scenario meets several…
Two-dimensional simulations of a Type II and a Type Ib-like supernova explosion are presented that encompass shock revival by neutrino heating, neutrino-driven convection, explosive nucleosynthesis, the growth of Rayleigh-Taylor…
It has been suggested that the observed rotation periods of radio pulsars might be induced by a non-axisymmetric spiral-mode instability in the turbulent region behind the stalled supernova bounce shock, even if the progenitor core was not…
We study the growth of the explosion energy after shock revival in neutrino-driven explosions in two and three dimensions (2D/3D) using multi-group neutrino hydrodynamics simulations of an $11.2 M_\odot$ star. The 3D model shows a faster…
It is now believed that pulsars comprise the fastest population of stars in the galaxy. With inferred mean, root-mean-square, and maximum 3-D pulsar speeds of $\sim$300-500 km/s, $\sim$500 km/s, and $\sim$2000 km/s, respectively, the…
In a recent paper, Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 211101 (2005) [hep-ph/0502166], Schmitt et al. have proposed a new mechanism to explain the observed velocities of pulsars. The proposed explanation is based on anisotropic emission of neutrinos from…
Neutrino oscillations, biased by the magnetic field, alter the shape of the neutrinosphere in a cooling protoneutron star emerging from the supernova collapse. The resulting anisotropy in the momentum of outgoing neutrinos can be the origin…
