Three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of deep convection in massive stars

Convection plays a key role in the evolution of massive stars. Despite many decades of work on this topic, the treatment of convection (convective boundary mixing in particular) is still one of the major uncertainties in stellar evolution modelling. Fortunately computing power has reached a level th...
