The companion properties of SNe Ia from the single degenerate model

Xiangcun Meng, Wuming Yang

Although Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play very important roles in many astrophysical fields, the exact nature of the progenitors of SNe Ia is still unclear. At present, the single…

The effect of metallicity on the delay-time distribution of type Ia supernova

Xiangcun Meng, Zhongmu Li, Wuming Yang

Measuring the delay-time distribution (DTD) of type Ia supernova(SNe Ia) is an important way to constrain the progenitor nature of SNe Ia. Recently, Strolger et al. (2010) obtained…

The correlation between C/O ratio, metallicity and the initial WD mass for SNe Ia

Xiangcum Meng, Wuming Yang

In this paper, we want to check whether or not the carbon abundance can be affected by initial metallicity. We calculated a series of stellar evolution. We found that when $Z\leq0.…

Binary population synthesis study on supersoft X-ray phase of single degenerate type Ia supernova progenitors

Xiangcun Meng, Wuming Yang

In the single degenerate (SD) scenario for type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), a mass-accreting white dwarf is expected to experience a supersoft X-ray source (SSS) phase. However, some r…

The Contributions of Interactive Binary Stars to Double Main Sequence Turn-Offs and Dual Red Clump of Intermediate-Age Star Clusters

Wuming Yang, Xiangcun Meng, Shaolan Bi +3

Double or extended main-sequence turn-offs (DMSTOs) and dual red clump (RC) were observed in intermediate-age clusters, such as in NGC 1846 and 419. the DMSTOs are interpreted as t…

Characteristics of solar-like oscillations of clusters simulated by stellar population synthesis

Wuming Yang, Zhongmu Li, Xiangcun Meng +1

Using a stellar population-synthesis method, we studied the distributions of ν_max and Δν of simulated clusters with various ages and metallicities. Except for the confirmed peak (…
