This paper presents the first systematic study of proto-neutron star (PNS) convection in three dimensions (3D) based on our latest numerical Fornax models of core-collapse supernova (CCSN). We confirm that PNS convection commonly occurs, and then quantify the basic physical characteristics of the convection. By virtue of the large number of long-term models, the diversity of PNS convective behavior emerges. We find that the vigor of PNS convection is not correlated with CCSN dynamics at large radii, but rather with the mass of PNS $-$ heavier masses are associated with stronger PNS convection. We find that PNS convection boosts the luminosities of $ u_{mu}$, $ u_{tau}$, $bar{ u}_{mu}$, and $bar{ u}_{tau}$ neutrinos, while the impact on other species is complex due to a competition of factors. Finally, we assess the consequent impact on CCSN dynamics and the potential for PNS convection to generate pulsar magnetic fields.

Most one-dimensional core-collapse simulations fail to explode, yet multi-dimensional simulations often explode. A dominant multi-dimensional effect aiding explosion is neutrino-driven convection. We incorporate a convection model in approximate one- dimensional core-collapse supernova (CCSN) simulations. This is the 1D+ method. This convection model lowers the neutrino luminosity required for explosion by 30%, similar to the reduction observed in multi-dimensional simulations. The model is based upon the global turbulence model of Mabanta & Murphy (2018) and models the mean-field turbulent flow of neutrino-driven convection. In this preliminary investigation, we use simple neutrino heating and cooling algorithms to compare the critical condition in the 1D+ simulations with the critical condition observed in two-dimensional simulations. Qualitatively, the critical conditions in the 1D+ and the two-dimensional simulations are similar. The assumptions in the convection model affect the radial profiles of density, entropy, and temperature, and comparisons with the profiles of three dimensional simulations will help to calibrate these assumptions. These 1D+ simulations are consistent with the profiles and explosion conditions of equivalent two-dimensional CCSN simulations but are ~100 times faster, and the 1D+ prescription has the potential to be ~100,000 faster than three-dimensional CCSN simulations. The 1D+ technique will be ideally suited to test the explodability of thousands of progenitor models.

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 convection. To this end, we perform 3D general-relativistic simulations with a 3-species neutrino leakage scheme. The leakage scheme captures the essential aspects of neutrino cooling, heating, and lepton number exchange as predicted by radiation-hydrodynamics simulations. The 27-solar-mass progenitor was studied in 2D by B. Mueller et al. (ApJ 761:72, 2012), who observed strong growth of the SASI while neutrino-driven convection was suppressed. In our 3D simulations, neutrino-driven convection grows from numerical perturbations imposed by our Cartesian grid. It becomes the dominant instability and leads to large-scale non-oscillatory deformations of the shock front. These will result in strongly aspherical explosions without the need for large-scale SASI shock oscillations. Low-l-mode SASI oscillations are present in our models, but saturate at small amplitudes that decrease with increasing neutrino heating and vigor of convection. Our results, in agreement with simpler 3D Newtonian simulations, suggest that once neutrino-driven convection is started, it is likely to become the dominant instability in 3D. Whether it is the primary instability after bounce will ultimately depend on the physical seed perturbations present in the cores of massive stars. The gravitational wave signal, which we extract and analyze for the first time from 3D general-relativistic models, will serve as an observational probe of the postbounce dynamics and, in combination with neutrinos, may allow us to determine the primary hydrodynamic instability.
We present multi-dimensional core-collapse supernova simulations using the Isotropic Diffusion Source Approximation (IDSA) for the neutrino transport and a modified potential for general relativity in two different supernova codes: FLASH and ELEPHANT . Due to the complexity of the core-collapse supernova explosion mechanism, simulations require not only high-performance computers and the exploitation of GPUs, but also sophisticated approximations to capture the essential microphysics. We demonstrate that the IDSA is an elegant and efficient neutrino radiation transfer scheme, which is portable to multiple hydrodynamics codes and fast enough to investigate long-term evolutions in two and three dimensions. Simulations with a 40 solar mass progenitor are presented in both FLASH (1D and 2D) and ELEPHANT (3D) as an extreme test condition. It is found that the black hole formation time is delayed in multiple dimensions and we argue that the strong standing accretion shock instability before black hole formation will lead to strong gravitational waves.
We present a new series of supernova neutrino light curves and spectra calculated by numerical simulations for a variety of progenitor stellar masses (13-50Msolar) and metallicities (Z = 0.02 and 0.004), which would be useful for a broad range of sup ernova neutrino studies, e.g., simulations of future neutrino burst detection by underground detectors, or theoretical predictions for the relic supernova neutrino background. To follow the evolution from the onset of collapse to 20 s after the core bounce, we combine the results of neutrino-radiation hydrodynamic simulations for the early phase and quasi-static evolutionary calculations of neutrino diffusion for the late phase, with different values of shock revival time as a parameter that should depend on the still unknown explosion mechanism. We here describe the calculation methods and basic results including the dependence on progenitor models and the shock revival time. The neutrino data are publicly available electronically.
