Evolution of binaries containing a hot subdwarf and a white dwarf to double white dwarfs, and double detonation supernovae with hypervelocity runaway stars
Abinaya Swaruba Rajamuthukumar, Evan B. Bauer, Stephen Justham +3
Compact binaries containing hot subdwarfs and white dwarfs have the potential to evolve into a variety of explosive transients. These systems could also explain hypervelocity runaw…
Violent mergers can explain the inflated state of some of the fastest stars in the Galaxy
Aakash Bhat, Rüdiger Pakmor, Ken J. Shen +2
A significant number of hypervelocity stars with velocities between km/s have recently been observed. The only plausible explanation so far is that they have been produ…
Spectroscopic and kinematic analyses of a warm survivor of a D6 supernova
Mark A. Hollands, Ken. J. Shen, Roberto Raddi +3
SDSSJ163712.21+363155.9 is a candidate hyper-runaway star, first identified from its unusual spectrum in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, which exhibits oxygen, magnesium, and silicon…
The dearth of high-mass hydrogen-atmosphere metal-polluted white dwarfs within 40 pc
Tim Cunningham, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Mairi O'Brien +7
We present a population synthesis model which addresses the different mass distributions of the metal-polluted and non-metal-polluted hydrogen-atmosphere white dwarfs identified in…
