Toward Resolved Simulations of Burning Fronts in Thermonuclear X-ray Bursts
M. Zingale, K. Eiden, Y. Cavecchi +9
We discuss the challenges of modeling X-ray bursts in multi-dimensions, review the different calculations done to date, and discuss our new set of ongoing simulations. We also desc…
Low Mach Number Modeling of Convection in Helium Shells on Sub-Chandrasekhar White Dwarfs II: Bulk Properties of Simple Models
Adam M. Jacobs, Michael Zingale, Andy Nonaka +2
The dynamics of helium shell convection driven by nuclear burning establish the conditions for runaway in the sub-Chandrasekhar mass, double detonation model for Type Ia supernovae…
Multidimensional Modeling of Type I X-ray Bursts. II. Two-Dimensional Convection in a Mixed H/He Accretor
C. M. Malone, M. Zingale, A. Nonaka +2
Type I X-ray Bursts (XRBs) are thermonuclear explosions of accreted material on the surfaces of a neutron stars in low mass X-ray binaries. Prior to the ignition of a subsonic burn…
High-Resolution Simulations of Convection Preceding Ignition in Type Ia Supernovae Using Adaptive Mesh Refinement
A. Nonaka, A. J. Aspden, M. Zingale +3
We extend our previous three-dimensional, full-star simulations of the final hours of convection preceding ignition in Type Ia supernovae to higher resolution using the adaptive me…
From Convection to Explosion: End-to-End Simulation of Type Ia Supernovae
A. Nonaka, A. S. Almgren, J. B. Bell +3
We present our end-to-end capability for computing the convective phase through the explosion phase of Type Ia supernovae. We compute the convective phase up to the time of ignitio…
Multidimensional Modeling of Type I X-ray Bursts. I. Two-Dimensional Convection Prior to the Outburst of a Pure Helium Accretor
C. M. Malone, A. Nonaka, A. S. Almgren +2
We present multidimensional simulations of the early convective phase preceding ignition in a Type I X-ray burst using the low Mach number hydrodynamics code, MAESTRO. A low Mach n…
