Type Ia supernovae from chemically segregated white dwarfs
E. Bravo, J. Isern, L. Piersanti
Type Ia supernovae are the outcome of the explosion of a carbon-oxygen white dwarf in a close binary system. They are thought to be the main contributors to the galactic nucleosynt…
Neutron spectroscopy of Mg states: constraining the stellar neutron source Ne()Mg
C. Massimi, The n_TOF Collaboration
This work reports on accurate, high-resolution measurements of the Mg()Mg and Mg() cross sections in the neutron energy range from thermal to abo…
Type Ia Supernovae keep memory of their progenitor metallicity
Luciano Piersanti, Eduardo Bravo, Sergio Cristallo +4
The ultimate understanding of Type Ia Supernovae diversity is one of the most urgent issues to exploit thermonuclear explosions of accreted White Dwarfs (WDs) as cosmological yards…
He-Accreting WDs: accretion regimes and final outcomes
L. Piersanti, A. Tornambé, L. R. Yungelson
The behaviour of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (WDs) subject to direct helium accretion is extensively studied. We aim to analyze the thermal response of the accreting WD to mass depo…
