Electron Cyclotron Maser Emission as the Driving Mechanism in Long-Period Radio Transients
Lilia Ferrario
Long-period radio transients (LPRTs) are highly polarised, coherent radio sources with periods of minutes to hours and bursts typically lasting 10 to 100 s. Here we consider the ap…
Comparison of Ne-22 core and shell distilled WD detonations in AREPO
Uri Pierre Burmester, Lilia Ferrario, Ivo R. Seitenzahl +1
We present three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of detonations in white dwarfs that have undergone distillation during crystall…
Evidence of .Ia Supernova Detonations in 3D Hydrodynamical Simulations of Double Degenerate Mergers
Uri Pierre Burmester, Lilia Ferrario, Rüdiger Pakmor +1
We report detailed 3D simulations of 1.1 Oxygen-Neon (ONe) white dwarfs (WDs) merging with a 0.35 helium WD, conducted with the moving-mes…
The intriguing outcomes of double degenerate mergers
Lilia Ferrario
This review talk explores the diverse outcomes of white dwarf mergers, emphasising that not all double degenerate mergers result in supernovae. Possible outcomes include the format…
The emission of interpulses by a 6.45-hour period coherent radio transient
Y. W. J. Lee, M. Caleb, Tara Murphy +29
Long-period radio transients are a novel class of astronomical objects characterised by prolonged periods ranging from 18 minutes to 54 minutes. They exhibit highly polarised, cohe…
