The Evolution of Helium Star Plus Carbon-Oxygen White Dwarf Binary Systems and Implications for Diverse Stellar Transients and Hypervelocity Stars

P. Neunteufel, S. -C. Yoon, N. Langer

Helium accretion induced explosions in CO white dwarfs (WDs) are considered promising candidates for a number of observed types of stellar transients, including supernovae (SNe) of…

Helium ignition in rotating magnetized CO white dwarfs leading to fast and faint rather than classical type Ia supernovae

P. Neunteufel, S. -C. Yoon, N. Langer

Based mostly on stellar models which do not include rotation, CO white dwarfs which accrete helium at rates of about have been put forwa…

Delay-time distribution of core-collapse supernovae with late events resulting from binary interaction

E. Zapartas, S. E. de Mink, R. G. Izzard +8

Most massive stars, the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae, are in close binary systems and may interact with their companion through mass transfer or merging. We undertake a…

The metallicity dependence of envelope inflation in massive stars

D. Sanyal, N. Langer, D. Szécsi +2

Recently it has been found that models of massive stars reach the Eddington limit in their interior, which leads to dilute extended envelopes. We perform a comparative study of the…

Models for the evolution of close binaries with He-Star and WD components towards Type Ia supernova explosions

P. Neunteufel, S. -C. Yoon, N. Langer

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) have been an important tool for astronomy for quite some time; however, the nature of their progenitors remains somewhat mysterious. Recent theoretical…

Observational properties of low redshift pair instability supernovae

A. Kozyreva, S. Blinnikov, N. Langer +1

So called superluminous supernovae have been recently discovered in the local Universe. It appears possible that some of them originate from stellar explosions induced by the pair…
