a non-spherical oscillation of the stalled shock in core-collapse supernovae that grows in low-order modes and can aid the explosion and kick the neutron star.

In astrophysics, standing accretion shock instability refers to a non-spherical oscillation of the stalled shock in core-collapse supernovae that grows in low-order modes and can aid the explosion and kick the neutron star. This meaning comes from Blondin (2003) in The Astrophysical Journal.[1]
