Core Collapse, Bounce and Shock Propagation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract.
Recent developments in the physics input for iron core collapse models of type II supernovae are reviewed. The effect of these developments on collapse calculations is also discussed. The inner core collapses homologously, with little change in specific entropy, bounces in the neighborhood of nuclear density, and sets up; an outward moving shock. In adiabatic models an explosion may result. The inclusion of neutrino effects may produce substantial shock damping. Current results indicate that core collapse, bounce and shock propagation does not produce an explosion when neutrino effects are included.
