... Future seminars . ... Core collapse supernovae " . ... Numerical simulations of the bounce shock and neutrino driven supernova mechanisms either do not lead to the explosion or the explosion energy is too small. ... In the talk we plan to review the results of our researches of MagnetoRotaional(MR) supernova mechanism in 2D approach. In MR supernova mechanism the rotational energy of the differentially rotating presupernova is partially transformed to the explosion energy by magnetic field. ...
... Tsupko Gravitational Lensing in Plasmic Medium Plasma Physics Reports, 2015, Vol. ... 562581 The influence of plasma on different effects of gravitational lensing is reviewed. Using the Hamiltonian approach for geometrical optics in a medium in the presence of gravity, an exact formula for the photon deflection angle by a black hole (or another body with a Schwarzschild metric) embedded in plasma with a spherically symmetric density distribution is derived. ...
Educator's Guide to Impact Craters . ... Just about all craters have deep central depressions, raised rims, and a blanket of ejected material surrounding them. ... Look for classical cratering features: basin, raised rim, ejecta blanket (material excavated from the crater and dumped around it, visible as white flour on the colored powder), and rays (material shot out at high velocity forming lines pointing directly away from the impact site). ... The material lies like a blanket around the crater. ...
