Spring 2021
I present the formation and evolution of the shock wave driven by neutrino losses in failed core-collapse supernovae that form black holes (BHs). Neutrino losses result in a decrease in the gravitational mass, which leads to the formation of an outward shock. The ejected mass and energy vary...

Solving the radiative transfer problem in SPH simulations of contact binary mergers using FluxCal
DownloadFall 2019
V1309 Sco was observed in 2008 as a luminous red nova and presents as some of the best time-resolved spectral data of a contact binary merger. However, the parameters of its progenitor and the physics behind the morphology of its light curve remain uncertain. We use the Smoothed Particle...
