Scientific paper

Neutrino transport supernova models were evolved by a computer code that couples explicit Newtonian hydrodynamics with an implicit radiation transport scheme that involves multigroup flux-limited diffusion. The models evolved are strongly dependent on neutrino opacities used. It is found that mass ejection, when it occurs, proceeds primarily by a reflected shock. In only one model did neutrino interactions increase the energy of the material ejected. Efficient coupling of the energies of the neutrino and particle gases in the core, together with a rapid outward transport of this energy, reduces the strength of the reflected shock and prevents material ejection.
