Synthetic observables from tECSN models show slower early red-color decline due to higher Ti/Cr and a late-time 12.8 μm Ne II line that strengthens over time, unlike comparable CO deflagration models.
Self-consistent spherical accretion simulations show cooling-enhanced growth of PBHs with radiative efficiency ~10^{-2} in the bremsstrahlung regime, yielding a critical seed mass of ~10^{-16} M_sun to consume a solar-mass star in a Hubble time.
3D MHD simulations of pre-supernova progenitors find turbulent mixing in oxygen and silicon shells deviates from standard 1D mixing-length prescriptions, with proposed updates for stellar evolution codes.
Simulations find nested bow shocks around an engulfed neutron star enhance drag force 10-100 times over Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton and allow force reversal based on envelope conditions.
Presents a grid of 113 fast-rotating, chemically-homogeneous massive star models at Z=0.001 reaching core collapse with high angular momentum for use as supernova and GRB progenitors.
Multi-D progenitor perturbations leave shock revival and explosion energetics essentially unchanged in 2D CHIMERA runs; any effects sit below the level of numerical stochasticity.
The upper edge of the PISN black hole mass gap shifts by up to 30 solar masses due to nuclear reaction rate uncertainties, primarily the 12C(α,γ)16O rate, while remaining robust to resolution variations unlike the lower edge.
New MESA stellar tracks with varied winds and convective mixing produce a primary black hole mass function with twin peaks near 8 and 13 solar masses in most variations, the higher peak dominated by mass-ratio-reversal systems, with rates varying by a factor of six.
Failed common envelope mergers yield 6-14 solar mass stripped stars consistent with long-lived core He-burning objects that appear single or in wide binaries from hierarchical triples.
Free neutrons survive r-process freeze-out in fast ejecta of neutron star mergers and their beta-decay heating produces a visible early kilonova precursor for mass fractions above ~0.05.
Binary evolution simulations identify short (20-500 days) and long (2000-4000 days) orbital period ranges where massive star-black hole systems retain enough angular momentum for GRB jet production with negligible mass loss.
