Multi-Dimensional Radiative Transfer Calculations of Double Detonations of Sub-Chandrasekhar-Mass White Dwarfs
Ken J. Shen, Samuel J. Boos, Dean M. Townsley +1
Study of the double detonation Type Ia supernova scenario, in which a helium shell detonation triggers a carbon core detonation in a sub-Chandrasekhar-mass white dwarf, has experie…
Non-Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium Radiative Transfer Simulations of Sub-Chandrasekhar-Mass White Dwarf Detonations
Ken J. Shen, Stéphane Blondin, Daniel Kasen +4
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) span a range of luminosities and timescales, from rapidly evolving subluminous to slowly evolving overluminous subtypes. Previous theoretical work has,…
Multi-Dimensional Parameter Study of Double Detonation Type Ia Supernovae Originating from Thin-Helium-Shell White Dwarfs
Samuel J. Boos, Dean M. Townsley, Ken J. Shen +2
Despite the importance of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) throughout astronomy, the precise progenitor systems and explosion mechanisms that drive SNe Ia are still unknown. An explosio…
