Journal ArticleDOI
Explosion Mechanisms of Core-Collapse Supernovae
TL;DR: The neutrino-heating mechanism, aided by nonradial flows, drives explosions, albeit low-energy ones, of O-Ne-Mg-core and some Fe-core progenitors as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Core-Collapse Supernovae from 9 to 120 Solar Masses Based on Neutrino-powered Explosions
TL;DR: In this paper, a grid of supernovae resulting from massive stars with solar metallicity and masses from 9.0 to 120 solar masses are calculated for nucleosynthesis, light curves, explosion energies, and remnant masses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comprehensive nucleosynthesis analysis for ejecta of compact binary mergers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the first comprehensive study of r-process element nucleosynthesis in the ejecta of compact binary mergers (CBMs) and their relic black hole (BH)-torus systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neutron-star radius constraints from GW170817 and future detections
TL;DR: In this article, the total mass of GW170817 provided a reliable constraint on the stellar radius if the merger did not result in a prompt collapse as suggested by the interpretation of associated electromagnetic emission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematics of dynamical mass ejection, nucleosynthesis, and radioactively powered electromagnetic signals from neutron-star mergers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the dynamical mass ejection, r-process nucleosynthesis, and properties of electromagnetic counterparts of neutron-star (NS) mergers in dependence on the uncertain properties of the nuclear equation of state (EOS) by employing 40 representative, high-density EOSs in relativistic, hydrodynamical simulations.
