3D hydrodynamic simulations of carbon burning in massive stars

We present the first detailed 3D hydrodynamic implicit large eddy simulations of turbulent convection of carbon burning in massive stars. Simulations begin with radial profiles mapped from a carbon-burning shell within a 15M circle dot 1D stellar evolution model. We consider models with 128(3), 256(...
