Sub-luminous type Ia supernovae from the mergers of equal-mass white dwarfs with M~0.9 M_sun
Ruediger Pakmor, Markus Kromer, Friedrich K. Roepke +3
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are thought to result from thermonuclear explosions of carbon-oxygen white dwarf stars. Existing models generally explain the observed properties, with…
Rates and Delay Times of Type Ia Supernovae
Ashley J. Ruiter, Krzysztof Belczynski, Chris L. Fryer
We analyze the evolution of binary stars to calculate synthetic rates and delay times of the most promising Type Ia Supernovae progenitors. We present and discuss evolutionary scen…
On The Maximum Mass of Stellar Black Holes
Krzysztof Belczynski, Tomasz Bulik, Chris L. Fryer +4
We present the spectrum of compact object masses: neutron stars and black holes that originate from single stars in different environments. In particular, we calculate the dependen…
