vice.yields.ccsne.engines¶
Core collapse supernova explosion engines: explodability as a function of progenitor mass in solar masses.
Signature: from vice.yields.ccsne import engines
New in version 1.2.0.
Tip
Instances of the engine class can be passed as the keyword
argument explodability to vice.yields.ccsne.fractional to calculate
IMF-averaged yields assuming a particular black hole landscape. The impact
of these assumptions is explored in Griffith et al. (2021) 1.
Contents¶
- engine
type The base class implemented in this module.
- cutoff
engine An engine characterized by a threshold mass, below which stars explode as CCSNe, and above which stars collapse directly to a black hole.
- E16
engine An engine implementing the Ertl et al. (2016) 2 model, characterized by the two parameters \(M_4\) and \(\mu_4\).
- S16
module Explodability maps as reported by the various models in Sukhbold et al. (2016) 3.
