Numerical simulations of multi-scale astrophysical problems: The example of Type Ia supernovae
F. K. Roepke
Vastly different time and length scales are a common problem in numerical simulations of astrophysical phenomena. Here, we present an approach to numerical modeling of such objects…
Delayed detonations in full-star models of Type Ia supernova explosions
F. K. Roepke, J. C. Niemeyer
Aims: We present the first full-star three-dimensional explosion simulations of thermonuclear supernovae including parameterized deflagration-to-detonation transitions that occur o…
A Common Explosion Mechanism for Type Ia Supernovae
P. A. Mazzali, F. K. Roepke, S. Benetti +1
Type Ia supernovae, the thermonuclear explosions of white dwarf stars composed of carbon and oxygen, were instrumental as distance indicators in establishing the acceleration of th…
Simulations of Turbulent Thermonuclear Burning in Type Ia Supernovae
W. Hillebrandt, M. Reinecke, W. Schmidt +3
Type Ia supernovae have recently received considerable attention because it appears that they can be used as "standard candles" to measure cosmic distances out to billions of light…
