Self-consistent MHD simulation of jet launching in a neutron star - white dwarf merger
J. Moran-Fraile, F. K. Roepke, R. Pakmor +4
The merger of a white dwarf (WD) and a neutron star (NS) is a relatively common event that will produce an observable electromagnetic signal. Furthermore, the compactness of these…
Hydrodynamical moving-mesh simulations of the tidal disruption of stars by supermassive black holes
Felipe G. Goicovic, Volker Springel, Sebastian T. Ohlmann +1
When a star approaches a black hole closely, it may be pulled apart by gravitational forces in a tidal disruption event (TDE). The flares produced by TDEs are unique tracers of oth…
Simulating the observed diversity of Type Ia supernovae - Introducing a model data base
Markus Kromer, Sebastian T. Ohlmann, Friedrich K. Roepke
Despite the importance of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) for modern astrophysics, their detailed mechanism is still not fully understood. In this contribution, we present recent findi…
Deflagrations in hybrid CONe white dwarfs: a route to explain the faint Type Iax supernova 2008ha
M. Kromer, S. T. Ohlmann, R. Pakmor +7
Stellar evolution models predict the existence of hybrid white dwarfs (WDs) with a carbon-oxygen core surrounded by an oxygen-neon mantle. Being born with masses ~1.1 Msun, hybrid…
