The force explosion condition is consistent with spherically symmetric CCSN explosions
ABSTRACT One of the major challenges in core-collapse supernova (CCSN) theory is to predict which stars explode and which collapse to black holes. The analytic force explosion condition (FEC) shows promise in predicting which stars explode in that the FEC is consistent with CCSN simulations that use the light-bulb approximation for neutrino heating and cooling. In this follow-up manuscript, we take the next step and show that the FEC is consistent with the explosion condition when using actual neutrino transport in gr1d simulations. Since most 1D simulations do not explode, to facilitate this test, we enhance the heating efficiency within the gain region. To compare the analytic FEC and radiation-hydrodynamic simulations, this manuscript also presents a practical translation of the physical parameters. For example: we replace the neutrino power deposited in the gain region, Lντg, with the net neutrino heating in the gain region; rather than assuming that $\dot{M}$ is the same everywhere, we calculate $\dot{M}$ within the gain region; and we use the neutrino opacity at the gain radius. With small, yet practical modifications, we show that the FEC predicts the explosion conditions in spherically symmetric CCSN simulations that use neutrino transport.
