ABSTRACT 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 behaviour emerges. We find that the vigour 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 νμ, ντ, $\bar{\nu }_{\mu }$, and $\bar{\nu }_{\tau }$ 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.

AbstractWe report a recent status of multi-dimensional neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulations for clarifying the explosion mechanism of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe). In this contribution, we present two results, one from two-dimensional (2D) simulations using multiple progenitor models and another from three-dimensional (3D) rotational core-collapse simulation using a single progenitor. From the first ever systematic 2D simulations, it is shown that the compactness parameter ξ that characterizes the structure of the progenitors is a key to diagnose the explodability of neutrino-driven explosions. In the 3D rotating model, we find a new type of rotation-assisted explosion, which makes the explosion energy bigger than that in the non-rotating model. The unique feature has not been captured in previous 2D self-consistent rotational models because the growth of non-axisymmetric instabilities is the key to foster the explosion by enhancing the energy transport from the proto-neutron star to the gain region.

Abstract We provide the time series and angular distributions of the neutrino and gravitational wave emissions of 11 state-of-the-art 3D non-rotating core-collapse supernova models and explore correlations between these signatures and the real-time dynamics of the shock and the proto-neutron star (PNS) core. The neutrino emissions are roughly isotropic on average, with instantaneous excursions about the mean inferred luminosity of as much as ±20 per cent. The deviation from isotropy is least for the ‘νμ’-type neutrinos and the lowest mass progenitors. Instantaneous temporal luminosity variations along a given direction for exploding models average ∼2–4 per cent, but can be as high as ∼10 per cent. For non-exploding models, they can achieve ∼25 per cent. The temporal variations in the neutrino emissions correlate with the temporal and angular variations in the mass accretion rate. We witness the lepton-number emission self-sustained asymmetry (LESA) phenomenon in all our models and find that the vector direction of the LESA dipole and that of the inner Ye distribution are highly correlated. For our entire set of 3D models, we find strong connections between the cumulative neutrino energy losses, the radius of the proto-neutron star, and the f-mode frequency of the gravitational wave emissions. When physically normalized, the progenitor-to-progenitor variation in any of these quantities is no more than ∼10 per cent. Moreover, the reduced f-mode frequency is independent of time after bounce to better than ∼10 per cent. Therefore, simultaneous measurement of gravitational waves and neutrinos from a given supernova event can be used synergistically to extract real physical quantities of the supernova core.

AbstractWe present results of full general relativistic (GR), three-dimensional (3D) core-collapse simulation of a massive star with multi-energy neutrino transport. Using a 70Mȯ zero-metallicity star, we show that the black-hole (BH) formation occurs at ∼ 300 ms after bounce. At a few ∼ 10 ms before the BH formation, we find that the stalled bounce shock is revived by neutrino heating from the forming hot proto-neutron star (PNS), which is aided by vigorous convection behind the shock. Our numerical results present the first evidence to validate the BH formation by the so-called fallback scenario. Furthermore we present results from a rapidly rotating core-collapse model of a 27Mȯ star that is trending towards an explosion. We point out that the correlated neutrino and gravitational-wave signatures, if detected, could provide a smoking-gun evidence of rapid rotation of the newly-born PNS.

Abstract Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are the final stage of massive stars, marking the birth of neutron stars (NSs). The aspherical mass ejection drives a natal kick of the forming NS. In this work we study the properties of the NS kick based on our long-term hydrodynamics CCSN simulations. We perform two-dimensional (2D) simulations for ten progenitors from a 10.8 to 20$\, M_{\odot }$ star covering a wide range of the progenitor’s compactness parameter, and two three-dimensional (3D) simulations for an 11.2$\, M_{\odot }$ star. Our 2D models present a variety of explosion energies between ∼1.3 × 1050 erg and ∼1.2 × 1051 erg, and NS kick velocities between ∼100 km s−1 and ∼1500 km s−1. For the 2D exploding models, we find that the kick velocities tend to become higher with the progenitor’s compactness. This is because the high progenitor compactness results in high neutrino luminosity from the proto-neutron star (PNS), leading to more energetic explosions. Since high-compactness progenitors produce massive PNSs, we point out that the NS masses and the kick velocities can be correlated, which is moderately supported by observation. Comparing 2D and 3D models of the 11.2$\, M_{\odot }$ star, the diagnostic explosion energy in 3D is, as previously identified, higher than that in 2D, whereas the 3D model results in a smaller asymmetry in the ejecta distribution and a smaller kick velocity than in 2D. Our results confirm the importance of self-consistent CCSN modeling covering a long-term post-bounce evolution in 3D for a quantitative prediction of the NS kicks.

AbstractWe perform a set of neutrino-driven core-collapse supernova (CCSN) simulations studying the hydrodynamical neutron star kick mechanism in three-dimensions. Our simulations produce neutron star (NS) kick velocities in a range between ~100-600 km/s resulting mainly from the anisotropic gravitational tug by the asymmetric mass distribution behind the supernova shock. This stochastic kick mechanism suggests that a NS kick velocity of more than 1000 km/s may as well be possible. An enhanced production of heavy elements in the direction roughly opposite to the NS recoil direction is also observed as a result of the asymmetric explosion. This large scale asymmetry might be detectable and can be used to constrain the NS kick mechanism.

AbstractThe progenitors of many core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are expected to be in binary systems. By performing a series of three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations, we investigate how CCSN explosions affect their binary companion. We find that the amount of removed stellar mass, the resulting impact velocity, and the chemical contamination of the companion that results from the impact of the SN ejecta, strongly increases with decreasing binary separation and increasing explosion energy. Also, it is foud that the impact effects of CCSN ejecta on the structure of main-sequence (MS) companions, and thus their long term post-explosion evolution, are in general not dramatic.

AbstractMassive stars end their life with the gravitational collapse of their core and the formation of a neutron star. Their explosion as a supernova depends on the revival of a spherical accretion shock, located in the inner 200km and stalled during a few hundred milliseconds. Numerical simulations suggest that the large scale asymmetry of the neutrino-driven explosion is induced by a hydrodynamical instability named SASI. Its non radial character is able to influence the kick and the spin of the resulting neutron star. The SWASI experiment is a simple shallow water analog of SASI, where the role of acoustic waves and shocks is played by surface waves and hydraulic jumps. Distances in the experiment are scaled down by a factor one million, and time is slower by a factor one hundred. This experiment is designed to illustrate the asymmetric nature of core-collapse supernova.
