Imprints of the ejecta-companion interaction in Type Ia supernovae: main sequence, subgiant, and red giant companions
P. Boehner, T. Plewa, N. Langer
We study supernova ejecta-companion interactions in a sample of realistic semidetached binary systems representative of Type Ia supernova progenitor binaries in a single-degenerate…
Asteroseismic test of rotational mixing in low-mass white dwarfs
A. G. Istrate, G. Fontaine, A. Gianninas +4
We exploit the recent discovery of pulsations in mixed-atmosphere (He/H), extremely low-mass white dwarf precursors (ELM proto-WDs) to test the proposition that rotational mixing i…
Rotating Stars and the Formation of Bipolar Planetary Nebulae II: Tidal Spin-up
G. Garcia-Segura, E. Villaver, A. Manchado +2
We present new binary stellar evolution models that include the effects of tidal forces, rotation, and magnetic torques with the goal of testing Planetary Nebulae (PNe) shaping via…
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…
B fields in OB stars (BOB): Detection of a magnetic field in the He-strong star CPD-57° 3509
N. Przybilla, L. Fossati, S. Hubrig +12
We report the detection of a magnetic field in the helium-strong star CPD-57 3509 (B2 IV), a member of the Galactic open cluster NGC3293, and characterise the star's atmospheric an…
