Production of 26Al in stellar hydrogen-burning environments: spectroscopic properties of states in 27Si

A. Parikh, K. Wimmer, T. Faestermann +11

Model predictions of the amount of the radioisotope 26Al produced in hydrogen-burning environments require reliable estimates of the thermonuclear rates for the 26gAl(p,γ)27Si and…

Improving smoothed particle hydrodynamics with an integral approach to calculating gradients

Domingo Garcia-Senz, Ruben M. Cabezon, Jose Antonio Escartin

In this paper we develop and test a fully conservative SPH scheme based on a tensor formulation that can be applied to simulate astrophysical systems. In the proposed scheme, deriv…

Type Ia supernovae and the DD scenario

J. Isern, E. García-Berro, P. Lorén-Aguilar

Type Ia supernovae are thought to be the outcome of the thermonuclear explosion of a white dwarf in a close binary system. Two possible scenarios, not necessarily incompatible, hav…

New phase diagrams for dense carbon-oxygen mixtures and white dwarf evolution

Leandro G. Althaus, Enrique García-Berro, Jordi Isern +2

Cool white dwarfs are reliable and independent stellar chronometers. The most common white dwarfs have carbon-oxygen dense cores. Consequently, the cooling ages of very cool white…
