TURBULENT CHEMICAL DIFFUSION IN CONVECTIVELY BOUNDED CARBON FLAMES

TURBULENT CHEMICAL DIFFUSION IN CONVECTIVELY BOUNDED CARBON FLAMES

It has been proposed that mixing induced by convective overshoot can disrupt the inward propagation of carbon deflagrations in super-asymptotic giant branch stars. To test this theory, we study an idealized model of convectively bounded carbon flames with 3D hydrodynamic simulations of the Boussines...
