Abstract By adjusting the pressure grads in the stage of formation of the shock wave, a successful prompt explosion process has been numerically simulated through a progenitor model of 15Msolar, in which the effects of pressure grads on various convections, including the Rayleigh--Taloy (R-T) convection, the lepton driven convection and the negative entropy grads driven convection, in an inner core are analysed. The simulation results show that the increase of the pressure grads in the inner core region may cause a powerful convection, which causes energy transfer from the inner core to the shock wave rapidly and efficiently.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
