TL;DR: In this article, a series of high-resolution simulations of a jet propagating through a stellar envelope in 2D cylindrical coordinates using the FLASH relativistic hydrodynamics module is carried out using an adaptive mesh that allows for a large dynamic range inside the star while still being efficient enough to follow the evolution of the jet long after it breaks out from the star.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors numerically analyze the evolution of a long-duration gamma-ray burst jet as it leaves the progenitor star and propagates to the photospheric radius, where radiation can be released.

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of hydrodynamical simulations of gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets propagating through their stellar progenitor material and subsequently through the surrounding circumstellar medium are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a set of numerical simulations of relativistic jets emanating from a central engine sitting at the center of compact, dying stars are presented, showing that even if the jets are narrowly collimated, their interaction with the star unbinds the stellar material, producing a stellar explosion.
