Electromagnetic observations of core collapse supernovae (CCSNe) provide a wealth of information about the explosion mechanisms and trigger the searches for the possible associated gravitational wave emission.
CCSNe with distances that are less than approximatively 30 Mpc are candidate targets for the LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA searches during the ongoing observing run. Supernovae are routinely...
During a core-collapse supernova, a strong reverse shock forms at the interface between the hydrogen envelope and the helium core, slowing the ejecta and driving some material back onto the newborn compact object. Conventional Eulerian simulations usually place an inner radial boundary, yet when the reverse shock reaches this boundary, it can generate a reflecting wave that hides the true...
I will present recent results of the CFT astrophysics group on the theoretical modeling of long Gamma Ray Bursts resulting from collapsars. We focus on the massive star collapse mechanisms as well as the jet breakout and its interactions with dynamically ejected envelope.
We also probe the crucial role of self-gravity and magnetic field play
in determining the newly formed black hole...
GRBs from collapsars have been studied by imposing jets at intermediate scales beyond the iron core region while exploring a wide range of parameters, such as luminosity and central engine duration. However, these conditions should be validated by studying jets launched directly from the central engine to show a global picture of the jet propagation inside and outside of the progenitor star....
