Description

The talk will review 2D and 3D modeling of core-collapse supernova explosions by the Garching group. It will address the question of the explosion mechanism and the role of relativistic effects, of the neutron star equation of state, and of dimensionality (2D vs. 3D) in this context. Observational consequences of the explosion mechanism will also be discussed.
