摘要:We summarize some of the new results emerging from our recent multi-dimensional simulations
of core collapse and explosion. We see a new role for rapid core oscillations and acoustic power
in igniting asymmetrical supernova explosions and obtain explosions for all progenitors studied.
Furthermore, we have explored the effects of rapid rotation and have estimated the degree of
anisotropy of the emergent neutrino emissions in the generic context. All these aspects bear
on the mechanisms of explosion and pulsar proper motion. While more detailed calculations are
called for, if any of the newly-identified phenomena survive, we suggest that the field of supernova
theory may be entering a new and productive phase.
