Detonating Failed Deflagration Model of Thermonuclear Supernovae I. Explosion Dynamics
Tomasz Plewa
We present a detonating failed deflagration model of Type Ia supernovae. In this model, the thermonuclear explosion of a massive white dwarf follows an off-center deflagration. We…
Crushing of interstellar gas clouds in supernova remnants. I. The role of thermal conduction and radiative losses
S. Orlando, G. Peres, F. Reale +4
We model the hydrodynamic interaction of a shock wave of an evolved supernova remnant with a small interstellar gas cloud like the ones observed in the Cygnus loop and in the Vela…
Type Ia Supernovae: Simulations and Nucleosynthesis
E. F. Brown, A. C. Calder, T. Plewa +3
We present our first nucleosynthesis results from a numerical simulation of the thermonuclear disruption of a static cold Chandrasekhar-mass C/O white dwarf. The two-dimensional si…
Type Ia Supernova Explosion: Gravitationally Confined Detonation
Tomasz Plewa, Alan Calder, Don Lamb
We present a new mechanism for Type Ia supernova explosions in massive white dwarfs. The proposed scenario follows from relaxing the assumption of symmetry in the model and involve…
