The helium star donor channel for the progenitors of type Ia supernovae and their surviving companion stars

Bo Wang, Zhanwen Han

The nature of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is still unclear. Employing Eggleton's stellar evolution code with the optically thick wind assumption, we systematically studied the He s…

Helium star evolutionary channel to super-Chandrasekhar mass type Ia supernovae

W. -M. Liu, W. -C. Chen, B. Wang +1

Recent discovery of several overluminous type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) indicates that the explosive masses of white dwarfs may significantly exceed the canonical Chandrasekhar mass l…

The helium star donor channel for the progenitors of type Ia supernovae with different metallicities

Bo Wang, Zhanwen Han

Context: The nature of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is still unclear. Metallicities may have an important effect on their properties. Aims: In this paper, we study the He star donor…

Helium star donor channel for the progenitors of type Ia supernovae

B. Wang, X. Meng, X. Chen +1

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play an important role in astrophysics, especially in the study of cosmic evolution. There are several progenitor models for SNe Ia proposed in the past…

The single-degenerate channel for the progenitor of type Ia supernovae with different metallicities

X. Meng, X. Chen, Z. Han

The single-degenerate channel for the progenitors of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are currently accepted, in which a carbon-oxygen white dwarf (CO WD) accretes hydrogen-rich materia…
