Type Ia Supernovae from Merging White Dwarfs II) Post-Merger Detonations
Cody Raskin, Daniel Kasen, Rainer Moll +2
Merging carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarfs are a promising progenitor system for Type Ia supernovae (SN Ia), but the underlying physics and timing of the detonation are still debated.…

Type Ia Supernovae from Merging White Dwarfs I. Prompt Detonations
Rainer Moll, Cody Raskin, Daniel Kasen +1
Merging white dwarfs are a possible progenitor of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). While it is not entirely clear if and when an explosion is triggered in such systems, numerical model…

Multi-Dimensional Double Detonation of Sub-Chandrasekhar Mass White Dwarfs
Rainer Moll, Stanford E. Woosley
Using 2D and 3D simulation, we study the "robustness" of the double detonation scenario for Type Ia supernovae, in which a detonation in the helium shell of a carbon-oxygen white d…
