This project aims to perform simulations of core-collapse supernovae, the explosive death of massive stars, to better understand their explosion properties, remnant properties, and gravitational wave emission. This project expects to produce gravitational wave emission predictions in previously unexplored areas of the supernova progenitor parameter space. The expected outcomes of this project include novel gravitational wave data analysis tools, and a better understanding of the birth properties of neutron stars and black holes. This should provide significant benefits, such as improving our understanding of the astrophysics behind core-collapse supernovae, and improving our understanding of neutron star and black hole populations.

该项目旨在模拟核心坍缩超新星，即大质量恒星的爆炸死亡，以更好地了解它们的爆炸特性、遗迹特性和引力波发射。该项目期望在超新星祖先参数空间中以前未探索的区域产生引力波发射预测。该项目的预期成果包括新的引力波数据分析工具，以及更好地了解中子星和黑洞的诞生特性。这应该会带来重大的好处，比如提高我们对核心坍缩超新星背后的天体物理学的理解，提高我们对中子星和黑洞种群的理解。
