Ignition of detonation in accreted helium

Ami Glasner, Eli Livne, Elad Steinberg +2

Sub-Chandrasekhar CO white dwarfs accreting helium have been considered as candidates for Type Ia supernova(SNIa) progenitors since the early 1980s (helium shell mass $> 0.1 M_\odo…

Convective overshoot mixing in Nova outbursts - The dependence on the composition of the underlying white dwarf

Ami S. Glasner, Eli Livne, James W. Truran

We present here, for the first time, a 2D study of the overshoot convective mechanism in nova outbursts for a wide range of possible compositions of the layer underlying the accret…

56Ni, Explosive Nucleosynthesis, and SNe Ia Diversity

James W Truran, Ami S Glasner, Yeunjin Kim

The origin of the iron-group elements titanium to zinc in nature is understood to occur under explosive burning conditions in both Type Ia (thermonuclear) and Type II (core collaps…

Helium Shell Detonations on Low Mass White Dwarfs as a Possible Explanation for SN 2005E

Roni Waldman, Daniel Sauer, Eli Livne +5

Recently several type Ib supernovae (SNe; with the prototypical SN 2005E) have been shown to have atypical properties. These SNe are faint (absolute peak magnitude of ~ -15) and fa…

Vorticity Generation in Slow Cooling Flows

Ami Glasner, Eli Livne, Baruch Meerson

We show that any generic non-adiabatic slow flow of ideal compressible fluid develops a significant vorticity. As an example, an initially irrotational conductive cooling flow is c…

Solar Neutrinos: Sensitivity to Pre-Main Sequence Evolution and to the Depth of the Convective Zone

John N. Bahcall, Ami Glasner

Predicted rates for solar neutrino experiments that are obtained with a modified stellar evolution code originally developed to study the advanced stages of stellar evolution are s…
