On the surface helium abundance of B-type hot subdwarf stars from the WD+MS channel of Type Ia supernovae
Rui-Jie Ji, Xiang-Cun Meng, Zheng-Wei Liu
The origin of intermediate helium (He)-rich hot subdwarfs are still unclear. Previous studies have suggested that some surviving Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) companions from the whi…
Effect of irradiation on the spin of millisecond pulsars
Shunyi Lan, Xiangcun Meng
A millisecond pulsar (MSP) is an old neutron star (NS) that has accreted material from its companion star, causing it to spin up, which is known as the recycling scenario. During t…
A robust model for the origin of optical quasi-periodic variability in supersoft X-ray sources
Weitao Zhao, Xiangcun Meng, Yingzheng Cui +1
Supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs) are known as possible progenitors of Type Ia supernovae. The quasi-periodic variability has been detected in the optical light curves of SSSs. Howeve…
A pair of CO + He white dwarfs as the progenitor of 2005E-like supernovae?
Xiangcun Meng, Zhanwen Han
Ca-rich transients (CRTs, 2005E-like supernovae) exhibit unusually strong Ca features during their nebular phase, and their distribution in their host galaxies indicates that they…
The hybrid CONe WD + He star scenario for the progenitors of type Ia supernovae
Bo Wang, Xiangcun Meng, Dongdong Liu +2
The hybrid CONe white dwarfs (WDs) have been suggested to be possible progenitors of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). In this article, we systematically studied the hybrid CONe WD + He…
The birth rate of SNe Ia from hybrid CONe white dwarfs
Xiangcun Meng, Philipp Podsiadlowski
Considering the uncertainties of the C-burning rate (CBR) and the treatment of convective boundaries, Chen et al. (2014) found that there is a regime where it is possible to form h…
