A gravitational wave detectable candidate Type Ia supernova progenitor
Emma T. Chickles, Kevin B. Burdge, Joheen Chakraborty +37
Type Ia supernovae, critical for studying cosmic expansion, arise from thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs, but their precise progenitor pathways remain unclear. Growing evide…
Eppur si muove: Evidence of disc precession or a sub-milliparsec SMBH binary in the QPE-emitting galaxy GSN 069
Giovanni Miniutti, Alessia Franchini, Matteo Bonetti +8
X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are intense soft X-ray bursts from the nuclei of nearby low-mass galaxies typically lasting about one hour and repeating every few. Their phys…
Expanding the ultracompacts: gravitational wave-driven mass transfer in the shortest-period binaries with accretion disks
Joheen Chakraborty, Kevin B. Burdge, Saul A. Rappaport +35
We report the discovery of three ultracompact binary white dwarf systems hosting accretion disks, with orbital periods of 7.95, 8.68, and 13.15 minutes. This significantly augments…
