Multi-dimensional NLTE radiative transfer for a double detonation Type Ia explosion model in the photospheric phase
F. P. Callan, L. J. Shingles, S. A. Sim +7
Previous radiative transfer calculations have shown that both multi-dimensionality and NLTE (non local thermodynamic equilibrium) effects impact the synthetic observables predicted…
Observational signatures of thermonuclear electron-capture supernovae -- Ne II line strengthening and color evolution as traces of the explosion mechanism
Alexander Holas, Fionntan P. Callan, Samuel W. Jones +7
Thermonuclear electron-capture supernovae (tECSNe) are a potential fate of certain intermediate mass stars forming ONe cores at the end of their evolution. Simulations suggest that…
Multidimensional Nebular-Phase Calculations of Dynamically-Driven Double-Degenerate Double-Detonation Models for Type Ia Supernovae
J. M. Pollin, S. A. Sim, L. J. Shingles +7
The dynamically-driven double-degenerate double-detonation model has emerged as a promising progenitor candidate for Type Ia supernovae. In this scenario, the primary white dwarf i…
NLTE spectral modelling for a carbon-oxygen and helium white-dwarf merger as a Ca-rich transient candidate
F. P. Callan, A. Holas, J. Morán-Fraile +7
We carry out NLTE (non local thermodynamic equilibrium) radiative transfer simulations to determine whether explosion during the merger of a carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarf (WD) wit…
Non-LTE radiative transfer simulations: Improved agreement of the double detonation with normal Type Ia supernovae
Christine E. Collins, Luke J. Shingles, Stuart A. Sim +6
The double detonation is a widely discussed explosion mechanism for Type Ia supernovae, whereby a helium shell detonation ignites a secondary detonation in the carbon/oxygen core o…
Synthetic Light Curves and Spectra for the Photospheric Phase of a 3D Stripped-Envelope Supernova Explosion Model
Thomas Maunder, Fionntan P. Callan, Stuart A. Sim +2
We present synthetic light curves and spectra from three-dimensional (3D) Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations based on a 3D core-collapse supernova explosion model of an ult…
Exploring the range of impacts of helium in the spectra of double detonation models for Type Ia supernovae
F. P. Callan, C. E. Collins, S. A. Sim +7
Models of sub-Chandrasekhar mass double detonations for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) suggest a distinguishing property of this scenario is unburnt helium in the outer ejecta. Howeve…
On the fate of the secondary white dwarf in double-degenerate double-detonation Type Ia supernovae -- II. 3D synthetic observables
J. M. Pollin, S. A. Sim, R. Pakmor +5
A leading model for Type Ia supernovae involves the double-detonation of a sub-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarf. Double-detonations arise when a surface helium shell detonation gener…
Monte Carlo radiative transfer for the nebular phase of Type Ia supernovae
L. J. Shingles, S. A. Sim, M. Kromer +9
We extend the range of validity of the ARTIS 3D radiative transfer code up to hundreds of days after explosion, when Type Ia supernovae are in their nebular phase. To achieve this,…
A metric space for type Ia supernova spectra: a new method to assess explosion scenarios
Michele Sasdelli, W. Hillebrandt, M. Kromer +4
Over the past years type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) have become a major tool to determine the expansion history of the Universe, and considerable attention has been given to, both, obs…
