The development of explosions in axisymmetric ab initio core-collapse supernova simulations of 12–25 M⊙ stars

We present four ab initio axisymmetric core-collapse supernova simulations for 12, 15, 20, and 25

progenitors. All of the simulations yield explosions and have been evolved for at least 1.2 seconds after core bounce and 1 second after material first becomes unbound. Simulations were computed with our Chimera code employing spectral neutrino transport, special and general relativistic transport effects, and state-of-the-art neutrino interactions. Continuing the evolution beyond 1 second allows explosions to develop more fully and the processes powering the explosions to become more clearly evident. We compute explosion energy estimates, including the binding energy of the stellar envelope outside the shock, of 0.34, 0.88, 0.38, and 0.70 B (
