Figure 66: Radial positions of shock waves as a function of time after bounce (the moment of greatest compression of the central core corresponding to a maximum central density) for two different equations of states: the compressible liquid drop model of Lattimer & Swesty [255] (thin line) and the relativistic mean field theory in the local density approximation of Shen et al. [374375] (thick line). See [402] for details. Notice that these particular models failed to produce a supernova explosion.
