Surface detonation in type Ia supernova explosions?
F. K. Roepke, S. E. Woosley
We explore the evolution of thermonuclear supernova explosions when the progenitor white dwarf star ignites asymmetrically off-center. Several numerical simulations are carried out…

Off-center ignition in type Ia supernova: I. Initial evolution and implications for delayed detonation
F. K. Roepke, S. E. Woosley, W. Hillebrandt
The explosion of a carbon-oxygen white dwarf as a Type Ia supernova is known to be sensitive to the manner in which the burning is ignited. Studies of the pre-supernova evolution s…
