On the rotation properties of a post-explosion helium-star companion in Type Iax supernovae

Yaotian Zeng, Zheng-Wei Liu, Xiangcun Meng +1

Recent studies have suggested that type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) are likely to result from a weak deflagration explosion of a Chandrasekhar-mass white dwarf in a binary system with…

Long-term evolution of post-explosion Helium-star Companions of Type Iax Supernovae

Yaotian Zeng, Zheng-Wei Liu, Alexander Heger +3

Supernovae of Type Iax (SNe Iax) are an accepted faint subclass of hydrogen-free supernovae. Their origin, the nature of the progenitor systems, however, is an open question. Recen…

Signatures of a surviving helium-star companion in Type Ia supernovae and constraints on the progenitor companion of SN 2011fe

Zheng-Wei Liu, Friedrich K. Roepke, Yaotian Zeng

Single-degenerate (SD) binary systems composed of a white dwarf and a non-degenerate helium (He)-star companion have been proposed as the potential progenitors of Type Ia supernova…

Observational signatures of the surviving donor star in the double detonation model of Type Ia supernovae

Zheng-Wei Liu, Friedrich K. Roepke, Yaotian Zeng +1

The sub-Chandrasekhar mass double-detonation (DDet) scenario is a contemporary model for SNe Ia. The donor star in the DDet scenario is expected to survive the explosion and to be…

Still Brighter than Pre-Explosion, SN 2012Z Did Not Disappear: Comparing Hubble Space Telescope Observations a Decade Apart

Curtis McCully, Saurabh W. Jha, Richard A. Scalzo +10

Type Iax supernovae represent the largest class of peculiar white-dwarf supernovae. The type Iax SN~2012Z in NGC 1309 is the only white dwarf supernova with a detected progenitor s…

Long-term evolution of surviving companion stars of Type Iax supernovae

Zheng-Wei Liu, Yaotian Zeng

The nature of the progenitors and explosion mechanism of Type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) remain a mystery. The single-degenerate (SD) systems that involve the incomplete pure deflagr…

The interaction of Type Iax supernova ejecta with a helium companion star

Yaotian Zeng, Zheng-Wei Liu, Zhanwen Han

Type Iax supenovae (SNe Iax) are an important sub-luminous class of SNe Ia. However, their progenitors and explosion mechanism have not been understood yet. It has been suggested t…
