The Secret Lives of Quarks: Hints of New Forces in Neutron Stars
At the ends of their lives, heavy stars can no longer support their own weight, which can result in fantastically energetic explosions, i.e., supernovae. When the stardust settles, the heaviest […]

Using Software to Simulate Neutrino Flavor Instability
A fantastic amount of neutrinos are emitted during cataclysmic astrophysical explosions like core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers. In both cases, the emitted neutrinos drive outflows that end up enriching […]
