Abstract
This lecture, together with those of Hans Bethe, and Amos Yahil and James Lattimer which follow, deal with Supernova theory. Some past work on this subject will be summarized, but chiefly we shall report on the work of the BABBLY group:
-
Bethe,
-
Applegate,
-
Baym,
-
Brown,
-
Lattimer and
-
Yahil.
I shall deal with the collpase of massive stars, bounce and shockm formation. Much of the discussion will be conductde by “engineering methods”, summarizing general features of extensive computer calculations, with some background theory to connect these features. Amos Yahil and James Lattimer will give these general features a theoretical foundation, in discussing self-similar collapse and hydrostatic models of the core and the shock. Hans Bethe will conclude, with a discussion of shock propagation, neutrino diffusion and formation of compact remmants. The work of the BABBLY group has appeared in references 10 (BBAL), 13 (BAB) and 20 (B3).
