Type Ia Supernova Explosions from Hybrid Carbon-Oxygen-Neon White Dwarf Progenitors
Donald E. Willcox, Dean M. Townsley, Alan C. Calder +2
Motivated by recent results in stellar evolution that predict the existence of hybrid white dwarf (WD) stars with a C-O core inside an O-Ne shell, we simulate thermonuclear (Type I…
