Shock Breakout in Core‐Collapse Supernovae and Its Neutrino Signature
Shock Breakout in Core‐Collapse Supernovae and Its Neutrino Signature
(Abridged) We present results from dynamical models of core-collapse supernovae in one spatial dimension, employing a newly-developed Boltzmann neutrino radiation transport algorithm, coupled to Lagrangean hydrodynamics and a consistent high-density nuclear equation of state. We focus on shock breakout and its neutrino signature and follow the dynamical evolution of the …
