We present results of high-resolution two-dimensional simulations which follow the first five minutes of a core collapse supernova explosion in a 15 solar mass blue supergiant progenitor. The computations start shortly after core bounce and include neutrino-matter interactions by using a light-bulb approximation for the neutrinos, and a treatment of the nucleosynthesis due to explosive silicon and oxygen burning. We find that newly formed iron-group elements are distributed throughout a significant fraction of the stellar helium core by the concerted action of convective and Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities. Fast moving nickel mushrooms with velocities up to 4000 km/s are observed. A continuation of the calculations to later times, however, indicates, that the iron velocities observed in SN 1987 A cannot be reproduced due to a strong deceleration of the clumps during their interaction with the dense shell left behind by the shock at the He/H interface. Therefore, we cannot confirm the claim that convective premixing of the nickel in the early phases of the explosion solves the problem of the high iron velocities.

New two-dimensional, high-resolution calculations of a core collapse supernova in a 15 Msol blue supergiant are presented, which cover the entire evolution from shock revival until the first few hours of the explosion. Explosive nucleosynthesis, its
dependence upon convective mixing during the first second of the evolution and the growth of Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities at the composition interfaces of the progenitor star are all modeled consistently and allow for a comparison with observational data. We confirm our earlier findings, that the perturbations induced by neutrino driven convection are sufficiently strong to seed large-scale Rayleigh-Taylor mixing and to destroy the onion-shell structure of the stellar He-core. As in our earlier calculations, the strong deceleration of the nickel clumps in the layers adjacent to the He/H interface suggests that the high velocities of iron-group elements observed in SN 1987A cannot be explained on the basis of currently favored progenitor models. Possible solutions to this dilemma and the implications of the mixing for type Ib explosions are briefly discussed.
Multidimensional hydrodynamic simulations of shell convection in massive stars suggest the development of aspherical perturbations that may be amplified during iron core-collapse. These perturbations have a crucial and qualitative impact on the delay
ed neutrino-driven core-collapse supernova explosion mechanism by increasing the total stress behind the stalled shock. In this paper, we investigate the properties of a 15 msun model evolved in 1-,2-, and 3-dimensions (3D) for the final $sim$424 seconds before gravitational instability and iron core-collapse using MESA and the FLASH simulation framework. We find that just before collapse, our initially perturbed fully 3D model reaches angle-averaged convective velocity magnitudes of $approx$ 240-260 km s$^{-1}$ in the Si- and O-shell regions with a Mach number $approx$ 0.06. We find the bulk of the power in the O-shell resides at large scales, characterized by spherical harmonic orders ($ell$) of 2-4, while the Si-shell shows broad spectra on smaller scales of $ellapprox30-40$. Both convective regions show an increase in power at $ell=5$ near collapse. We show that the 1D texttt{MESA} model agrees with the convective velocity profile and speeds of the Si-shell when compared to our highest resolution 3D model. However, in the O-shell region, we find that texttt{MESA} predicts speeds approximately emph{four} times slower than all of our 3D models suggest. All eight of the multi-dimensional stellar models considered in this work are publicly available.
A dense neutrino gas, such as the one anticipated in the supernova environment, can experience fast neutrino flavor
The status of core collapse supernoova progenitor models is reviewed with a focus on some of the current uncertainties arising from the difficulties of modeling important macrophysics and microphysics. In particular, I look at issues concerned with m
odeling convection, the implications of the still uncertain 12C(alpha,gamma)16O reaction rate, the uncertainties involved with the incorporation of mass loss, rotation, and magnetic fields in the stellar models, and the possible generation of global instabilities in stellar models at the late evolutionary stages.
We investigate core-collapse supernova (CCSN) nucleosynthesis in polar axisymmetric simulations using the multidimensional radiation hydrodynamics code CHIMERA. Computational costs have traditionally constrained the evolution of the nuclear compositi
on in CCSN models to, at best, a 14-species $alpha$-network. Such a simplified network limits the ability to accurately evolve detailed composition, neutronization and the nuclear energy generation rate. Lagrangian tracer particles are commonly used to extend the nuclear network evolution by incorporating more realistic networks in post-processing nucleosynthesis calculations. Limitations such as poor spatial resolution of the tracer particles, estimation of the expansion timescales, and determination of the mass-cut at the end of the simulation impose uncertainties inherent to this approach. We present a detailed analysis of the impact of these uncertainties on post-processing nucleosynthesis calculations and implications for future models.
