We present results of three-dimensional (3D), radiation-magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations of core-collapse supernovae in full general relativity (GR) with spectral neutrino transport. In order to study the effects of progenitors rotation and magnetic fields, we compute three models, where the precollapse rotation rate and magnetic fields are included parametrically to a 20 M$_{odot}$ star. While we find no shock revival in our two non-magnetized models during our simulation times ($sim500$ ms after bounce), the magnetorotationally (MR) driven shock expansion immediately initiates after bounce in our rapidly rotating and strongly magnetized model. We show that the expansion of the MR-driven flows toward the polar directions is predominantly driven by the magnetic pressure, whereas the shock expansion toward the equatorial direction is supported by neutrino heating. Our detailed analysis indicates that the growth of the so-called kink instability may hinder the collimation of jets, resulting in the formation of broader outflows. Furthermore we find a dipole emission of lepton number, only in the MR explosion model, whose asymmetry is consistent with the explosion morphology. Although it is similar to the lepton-number emission self-sustained asymmetry (LESA), our analysis shows that the dipole emission occurs not from the protoneutron star convection zone but from above the neutrino sphere indicating that it is not associated with the LESA. We also report several unique neutrino signatures, which are significantly dependent on both the time and the viewing angle, if observed, possibly providing a rich information regarding the onset of the MR-driven explosion.

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 report on a set of long-term general-relativistic three-dimensional (3D) multi-group (energy-dependent) neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulations of core-collapse supernovae. We employ a full 3D two-moment scheme with the local M1 closure, thre e neutrino species, and 12 energy groups per species. With this, we follow the post-core-bounce evolution of the core of a nonrotating $27$-$M_odot$ progenitor in full unconstrained 3D and in octant symmetry for $gtrsim$$ 380,mathrm{ms}$. We find the development of an asymmetric runaway explosion in our unconstrained simulation. We test the resolution dependence of our results and, in agreement with previous work, find that low resolution artificially aids explosion and leads to an earlier runaway expansion of the shock. At low resolution, the octant and full 3D dynamics are qualitatively very similar, but at high resolution, only the full 3D simulation exhibits the onset of explosion.
Massive stars end their life in an explosion event with kinetic energies of the order 1 Bethe. Immediately after the explosion has been launched, a region of low density and high entropy forms behind the ejecta which is continuously subject to neutri no heating. The neutrinos emitted from the remnant at the center, the protoneutron star (PNS), heat the material above the PNS surface. This heat is partly converted into kinetic energy and the material accelerates to an outflow that is known as the neutrino driven wind. For the first time, we simulate the collapse, bounce, explosion and the neutrino driven wind phases consistently over more than 20 seconds. Our numerical model is based on spherically symmetric general relativistic radiation hydrodynamics using spectral three flavor Boltzmann neutrino transport. In simulations where no explosions are obtained naturally, we model neutrino driven explosions for low and intermediate mass Fe-core progenitor stars by enhancing the charged current reaction rates. In the case of a special progenitor star, the O-Ne-Mg-core, the explosion in spherical symmetry was obtained without enhanced opacities. The post explosion evolution is in qualitative agreement with static steady-state and parametrized dynamic models of the neutrino driven wind. On the other hand, we find generally smaller neutrino luminosities and mean neutrino energies as well as a different evolutionary behavior of the neutrino luminosities and mean neutrino energies. The neutrino driven wind is proton-rich for more than 10 seconds and the contraction of the PNS differs from the assumptions made for the conditions at the inner boundary in previous neutrino driven wind studies. Despite the moderately large entropies per baryon of about 100 and the fast expansion timescale, the conditions found in our model are unlikely to favor...

We present a new three-dimensional general-relativistic hydrodynamic evolution scheme coupled to dynamical spacetime evolutions which is capable of efficiently simulating stellar collapse, isolated neutron stars, black hole formation, and binary neut ron star coalescence. We make use of a set of adapted curvi-linear grids (multipatches) coupled with flux-conservative cell-centered adaptive mesh refinement. This allows us to significantly enlarge our computational domains while still maintaining high resolution in the gravitational-wave extraction zone, the exterior layers of a star, or the region of mass ejection in merging neutron stars. The fluid is evolved with a high-resolution shock capturing finite volume scheme, while the spacetime geometry is evolved using fourth-order finite differences. We employ a multi-rate Runge-Kutta time integration scheme for efficiency, evolving the fluid with second-order and the spacetime geometry with fourth-order integration, respectively. We validate our code by a number of benchmark problems: a rotating stellar collapse model, an excited neutron star, neutron star collapse to a black hole, and binary neutron star coalescence. The test problems, especially the latter, greatly benefit from higher resolution in the gravitational-wave extraction zone, causally disconnected outer boundaries, and application of Cauchy-characteristic gravitational-wave extraction. We show that we are able to extract convergent gravitational-wave modes up to (l,m)=(6,6). This study paves the way for more realistic and detailed studies of compact objects and stellar collapse in full three dimensions and in large computational domains. The multipatch infrastructure and the improvements to mesh refinement and hydrodynamics codes discussed in this paper will be made available as part of the open-source Einstein Toolkit.
We present the results of three-dimensional kinetic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of isotropic periodic relativistically magnetized pair-plasma equilibria known as the ABC fields. We performed several simulations for initial wavenumbers k_ini = 2 or k_ini = 4, different efficiencies of radiative cooling (including radiation reaction from synchrotron and inverse Compton processes), and different mean magnetization values. These equilibria evolve by means of ideal coalescence instability, the saturation of which generates ab initio localized kinetically-thin current layers -- sites of magnetic reconnection and non-thermal particle acceleration -- eventually relaxing to a state of lower magnetic energy at conserved total magnetic helicity. We demonstrate that magnetic relaxation involves in addition localized collapses of magnetic minima and bulk mergers of current layer pairs, which represents a novel scenario of spontaneous magnetic dissipation with application to the rapid gamma-ray flares of blazars and of the Crab Nebula. Particle acceleration under strong radiative losses leads to formation of power-law indices N(gamma) ~ gamma^(-p) up to p ~= -2.3 at mean hot magnetization values of <sigma_hot> ~ 6. Individual energetic particles can be accelerated within one light-crossing time by electric fields that are largely perpendicular to the local magnetic fields. The energetic particles are highly anisotropic due to the kinetic beaming effect, implying complex patterns of rapid variability. A significant fraction of the initial total energy can be radiated away in the overall process of magnetoluminescence.
