Implications of turbulence for jets in core-collapse supernova explosions (December 2014)

December 28, 2014 //  by Noam Soker

Avishai Gilkis and I show that turbulence in core collapse supernovae which has been shown recently to ease shock revival can also lead to the formation of intermittent thick accretion disks, or accretion belts, around the newly born neutron star. This is likely to result in jets that explode the star. We strengthen the jittering jets mechanism as a prominent explosion mechanism of massive stars. Paper was posted on astro-ph.
