In recent years, three-dimensional (3D) simulations of these phenomena have matured significantly. Considerable progress has been made towards identifying the ingredients for shock revival by the neutrino-driven mechanism, and successful explosions have already been obtained in a number of self-consistent 3D models. These advances also bring new challenges, however. Prompted by a need for increased physical realism and meaningful model validation, supernova theory is now moving towards a more integrated view that connects multi-dimensional phenomena in the late convective burning stages prior to collapse, the explosion engine, and mixing instabilities in the supernova envelope. Here we review our current understanding of multi-D fluid flow in core-collapse supernovae and their progenitors. We start by outlining specific challenges faced by hydrodynamic simulations of core-collapse supernovae and of the late convective burning stages. We then discuss recent advances and open questions in theory and simulations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-06-09T07:23:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "core-collapse supernovae", "hydrodynamic", "progenitors", "multi-dimensional fluid flow plays", "connects multi-dimensional phenomena" ], "tags": [ "review article", "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 100, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
