Abstract
Abstract We investigate the effect of progenitor rotation on the standing accretion shock instability (SASI) using two- and three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations. We find that the growth rate of the SASI is a near-linearly increasing function of the specific angular momentum in the accreting gas. Both the growth rate and the angular frequency in the two-dimensional model with cylindrical geometry agree well with previous linear stability analyses. When excited by very small random perturbations, a one-armed spiral mode dominates the small rotation rates predicted by current stellar evolution models, while progressively higher-order modes are seen as the specific angular momentum increases.
