Rotating Core Collapse and Bounce

  • C. D. Ott @ TAUP 2009, Rome, 2009/07/02

10

  • Collapse: Angular momentum

conservation leads to spin up & rotational deformation of inner core.

  • At core bounce: Very large

accelerations -> rapidly changing mass quadrupole moment.

  • Most extensively studied

GW emission in core collapse

  • Always axisymmetric: ONLY h+
  • Simplest GW emission process:

Rotation + Gravity + Stiffening of EOS.

Convection & SASI

20

  • Prompt Convection

– Negative entropy gradient left by stalling shock drives prompt convection.

[e.g., Burrows & Hayes 1992]

– Growth and duration (5-50 ms) strongly dependent on seed perturbations.

  • Protoneutron Star (PNS) Convection

– Negative lepton gradient drives PNS convection. [e.g., Dessart et al. 2005] – Physical scale: 10-50 km. Duration:  1 s.

  • Neutrino-Driven Convection and SASI

[e.g., Herant et al. 1994, Burrows et al. 1995, Blondin et al. 2003, Buras et al. 2006, Burrows et al. 2006, Marek & Janka 2009]

– Neutrino heating -> negative entropy gradient behind shock. – Advective-acoustic cycle -> low-mode standing accretion shock instability. – Physical scale: 50-300 km. Duration: until explosion or BH formation.

[Burrows et al. 2006]

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Convection, SASI & Explosion: GW Emission

21

  • Convective/SASI GW signal is broadband, f ≈ 10 – 1000 Hz, and of

stochastic nature (governed by turbulent flow/non-linear dynamics).

  • Largest GW amplitudes emitted by SASI plumes/rapid downflows

to small radii.

  • Aspherical explosion: Secular increase of |h| (positive: prolate, negative: oblate)

[Murphy, Ott & Burrows 2009 (in prep.); Marek et al. 2009, Müller et al. 2004, Kotakeet al. 2007, 2009]

  • Axisymmetric (2D)

simulations with the code Bethe-Hydro.

[Murphy & Burrows 2008]

  • Neutrino cooling &

parametrized neutrino luminosity and heating.

  • Core collapse and

SN dynamics in nonrotating 12, 15, 20, and 40 MSUN stars.

Detectability;Dependence on Progenitor & ν-Luminosity

[Murphy, Ott & Burrows 2009 (in prep.)]

  • More massive progenitor -> higher accretion rate -> greater Lν / heating

required and longer time to explosion -> stronger GW emission.

Acoustic Mechanism

  • C. D. Ott @ TAUP 2009, Rome,

2009/07/02

25

  • SASI-modulated supersonic accretion streams and SASI generated

turbulence excite lowest-order (l=1) g-mode in the PNS. f  300 Hz.

[Burrows, Livne, Dessart, Ott, Murphy 2006, 2007b/c, Ott et al. 2006]

  • g-modes reach large amplitudes

500 ms —1 s after bounce.

  • Damping by strong sound waves

that steepen into shocks; deposit energy in the stalled shock.

  • 1 B explosions at late times.
  • (1) hard to simulate; unconfirmed,

(2) possible parametric instability, limiting mode amplitudes. [Weinberg & Quatert’08]

[Burrows & Hayes 1996, Fryer et al. 2004; in the MHD context: Kotake et al. 2004, Obergaulinger et al. 2005, 2006]

  • Precollapse inhomogeneities in nuclear silicon/oxygen burning may

be large, leading to density perturbations O(10%). [Bazan & Arnett ‘97, Meakin et al. ‘06].

  • May result in asymmetric explosions (-> pulsar recoils) and emission of

GW burst (with memory!) from mass motions and neutrinos.

  • Somewhat unexplored: Only 2 studies; most stellar evolution is done in 1D. Would

need large parameter study.

  • Aspherical outflows also in jet-driven and SASI/acoustic explosions.

  • Multi-D core-collapse SN simulations are maturing
  • > 3 potential explosion mechanisms:

– Neutrino mechanism – Magnetorotational mechanism – Acoustic Mechanism

  • The GW signature of the 3 considered mechanisms

appears mutually exclusive.

  • Model waveforms: Rotating collapse & bounce robust; other GW

emission mechanisms need more/better modeling.

  • Need range > 3 Mpc for sizable event rate. Adv. LIGO in burst

mode unlikely to see strongest bursts beyond local group!

  •  10 increase in high-frequency (500-1000 Hz) sensitivity needed

  • Rapid rotation:

P0 < 4-6 s

  • > millisecond PNS
  • PNS rotational energy:

10 B = 1052 erg

  • Amplification of B

fields up to equipartition:

  • compression
  • dynamos
  • magneto-rotational

instability (MRI)

  • Jet-driven outflows.
  • MHD-driven explosion

may be GRB precursor.

  • EOS stiffens at ρnuc:

Inner core bounce,

  • > hydrodynamic bounce shock.
  • Shock loses kinetic Energy to

neutrinos and dissociation: Shock stalls.

  • Shock revivaland SN explosion
  • r collapse to BH (collapsar/GRB?).
  • Time window between bounce &
  • nset of explosion: 1 to 3 s.
  • What is the SN mechanism?

EGrav= 300 [B]ethe (3 x 1053 erg) EExplosion = 1 B ENeutrinos = 99% EGrav≈ 15% MSUNc2

  • Energy reservoir:

few x 1053 erg (100 B)

  • Explosion energy:

1 B

  • Time frame for explosion:

0.3 – 1.5 s after bounce.

  • BH formation at baryonic

PNS mass  1.8 – 2.5 MSUN.

  • Aside:

No direct BH formation in pop I/II stars!

  • Local group of galaxies: V  30 Mpc3

– Milky Way, Andromeda (M31), Triangulum (M33) + 30 small galaxies/satellite galaxies (incl. SMC & LMC).

  • Local group: worst case 1 SN in 90 years, best case 1 SN in 20 years.
  • Most local group events with 100 kpc from Earth.

[Dimmelmeier et al. 2008, Dimmelmeier et al. 2007, Ottet al. 2007, Ott 2006]

  • First 2D/3D GR simulations with

hot microphysical EOS & deleptonization during collapse.

  • GW signature determined by

inner core mass, inner core angular momentum, and (to some extent) nuclear EOS.

  • GW signal of generic shape;

no “multiple centrifugal bounce”.

  • GWs from “quickly” spinning

cores (precollapse P0 < 8 s) “detectable” throughout the Milky Way.

  • Important finding:

Cores stay axisymmetric through bounce and early postbounce phase.
