Spherically Symmetric Simulation with Boltzmann Neutrino Transport of Core Collapse and Postbounce Evolution of a 15 [ITAL]M[/ITAL][TINF]⊙[/TINF] Star

We present a spherically symmetric, Newtonian core collapse simulation of a 15 M☉ star with a 1.28 M☉ iron core. The time-, energy-, and angle-dependent transport of electron neutrinos (νe) and antineutrinos (e) was treated with a new code that iteratively solves the Boltzmann equation and the equations for neutrino …
