Title: Iron core collapse models of Type II supernovae

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6720556

Results of recent numerical, one-dimensional core collapse calculations for 10M/sub sun/, 15M/sub sun/ and 20M/sub sun/ population I stars are reviewed. The physics model is discussed, including recent improvements in the nuclear equations of state, and nuclear binding energies. None of the models produces prompt explosions as a direct result of core collapse and bounce.
