Bright Supernovae from Magnetar Birth
S. E. Woosley
Following an initial explosion that might be launched either by magnetic interactions or neutrinos, a rotating magnetar radiating according to the classic dipole formula could powe…

Low Mach Number Modeling of Type Ia Supernovae. IV. White Dwarf Convection
M. Zingale, A. S. Almgren, J. B. Bell +2
We present the first three-dimensional, full-star simulations of convection in a white dwarf preceding a Type Ia supernova, specifically the last few hours before ignition. For the…

The Diversity of Type Ia Supernovae from Broken Symmetries
Daniel Kasen, Fritz Roepke, S. E. Woosley
Type Ia supernovae result when carbon-oxygen white dwarfs in binary systems accrete mass from companion stars, reach a critical mass, and explode. The near uniformity of their ligh…
