3D Hydrodynamical Simulations of Helium-Ignited Double-degenerate White Dwarf Mergers
Niranjan Roy, Vishal Tiwari, Alexey Bobrick +6
The origins of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are still debated. Some of the leading scenarios involve a double detonation in double white dwarf (WD) systems. In these scenarios, heli…
Double-Degenerate Carbon-Oxygen and Oxygen-Neon White Dwarf Mergers: A New Mechanism for Faint and Rapid Type Ia Supernovae
Rahul Kashyap, Tazkera Haque, Pablo Lorén-Aguilar +2
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) originate from the thermonuclear explosion of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (CO WDs), giving rise to luminous optical transients. A relatively common varie…
Axions and the luminosity function of white dwarfs. The thin and thick disks, and the halo
Jordi Isern, Enrique Garcia-Berro, Santiago Torres +2
The evolution of white dwarfs is a simple gravothermal process of cooling. Since the shape of their luminosity function is sensitive to the characteristic cooling time, it is possi…
The Spin Evolution of Fast-Rotating, Magnetized Super-Chandrasekhar White Dwarfs in the Aftermath of White Dwarf Mergers
L. Becerra, J. A. Rueda, P. Loren-Aguilar +1
The evolution of the remnant of the merger of two white dwarfs is still an open problem. Furthermore, few studies have addressed the case in which the remnant is a magnetic white d…
Three-dimensional simulations of the interaction between the nova ejecta, the accretion disk, and the companion star
Joana Figueira, Jordi Jose, Enrique Garcia-Berro +3
Context. Classical novae are thermonuclear explosions hosted by accreting white dwarfs in stellar binary systems. Material piles up on top of the white dwarf star under mildly dege…
The white dwarf binary pathways survey - II. Radial velocities of 1453 FGK stars with white dwarf companions from LAMOST DR4
A. Rebassa-Mansergas, J. J. Ren, P. Irawati +18
We present the second paper of a series of publications aiming at obtaining a better understanding regarding the nature of type Ia supernovae (SNIa) progenitors by studying a large…
