Abstract :
Supernova simulation is one of the applications of computer science in astrophysics. Based on the core-collapse supernova Code WZXW96, many works have been done in the recent years. We reviewed the progress including the inner core acceleration mechanism, the convection in the inner core, the screening effect on electron capture and the explosion energy. We also introduce ongoing work for simulation.
