We investigate the possibility to approximate relativistic effects in hydrodynamical simulations of stellar core collapse and post-bounce evolution by using a modified gravitational potential in an otherwise standard Newtonian hydrodynamic code. Different modifications of the effective relativistic potential introduced by Rampp & Janka (2002) are discussed. Corresponding hydrostatic solutions are compared with solutions of the TOV equations, and hydrodynamic simulations with two different codes are compared with fully relativistic results. One code is applied for one- and two-dimensional calculations with a simple equation of state, and employs either the modified effective relativistic potential in a Newtonian framework or solves the general relativistic field equations under the assumption of the conformal flatness condition (CFC) for the three-metric. The second code allows for full-scale supernova runs including a microphysical equation of state and neutrino transport based on the solution of the Boltzmann equation and its moments equations. We present prescriptions for the effective relativistic potential for self-gravitating fluids to be used in Newtonian codes, which produce excellent agreement with fully relativistic solutions in spherical symmetry, leading to significant improvements compared to previously published approximations. Moreover, they also approximate qualitatively well relativistic solutions for models with rotation.

3D simulations of a complete convective silicon shell burning phase
A 3D simulation of a convective silicon-burning shell in a 14 solar mass star burns out about 800 s earlier than a 1D MESA model, suggesting weaker convective boundary mixing and a convective-reactive energy profile.

Black Hole Supernovae, their Equation of State Dependence and Ejecta Composition
In axisymmetric simulations of a 60 solar mass progenitor, a black hole forms within about a second of shock revival yet the supernova still explodes; final explosion energy ranges from 0.06 to 0.72 times 10^51 erg, e...

Muonic Boson Limits: Supernova Redux
Supernova models yield coupling limits g_a ≲ 0.9×10^{-10} and g_φ ≲ 0.4×10^{-10} for masses above 100 keV from gamma-ray observations, plus stronger trapping-regime limits from explosion energy, that are difficult to ...

Universal relations applied to proto-neutron star generated gravitational waves from three-dimensional core collapse supernova simulations
Against four Chimera core-collapse supernova simulations, most published universal relations for proto-neutron-star oscillations track the simulated gravitational-wave peak frequencies only during short post-bounce intervals.
