Hydrodynamic simulations of WD-WD mergers and the origin of RCB stars
Sagiv Shiber, Orsola De Marco, Patrick M. Motl +10
We study the properties of double white dwarf (DWD) mergers by performing hydrodynamic simulations using the new and improved adaptive mesh refinement code Octo-Tiger. We follow th…
