Simulating the jittering-jets explosion mechanism: circum-jet rings account for observed core-collapse supernova remnant morphologies
Three-dimensional simulations explore how pairs of jets in core-collapse supernovae create opposite circum-jet rings, matching observed point-symmetric morphologies like SNR G46.8-0.3 and G11.2-0.3. This confirms that the jittering jets explosion mechanism (JJEM) is a primary driver for CCSNe by reproducing these jet-shaped structures.
