Effects of Angular Momentum on Supernova Explosion and Stability of Rapidly Rotating Stellar Cores
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 March 2016
Abstract
We discuss effects of angular momentum on gravitational collapse and the fate of rapidly rotating stellar cores just before the gravitational collapse. It is found that Stellar cores become dynamically unstable against the modes of P0 and/or P2± 2 before the central densities become higher than the neutron drip density(˜ 4.3×1011 g/cm3). this suggests that fission occurs at pre-supernova stage or in the collapsing stage. In order to make clear whether these dynamical instabilities induce supernova explosion or not, three dimensional hydrodynamic computation would be necessary.
