A systematic study of carbon-oxygen white dwarf mergers: mass combinations for Type Ia supernovae
Yushi Sato, Naohito Nakasato, Ataru Tanikawa +3
Mergers of two carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarfs (WDs) have been considered as progenitors of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). Based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations,…
Hydrodynamical evolution of merging carbon-oxygen white dwarfs: their pre-supernova structure and observational counterparts
Ataru Tanikawa, Naohito Nakasato, Yushi Sato +3
We perform smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations for merging binary carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarfs (WDs) with masses of and , until the merger rem…
A Chandrasekhar Mass Progenitor for the Type Ia Supernova Remnant 3C 397 from The Enhanced Abundances of Nickel and Manganese
Hiroya Yamaguchi, Carles Badenes, Adam R. Foster +8
Despite decades of intense efforts, many fundamental aspects of Type Ia supernova (SNe Ia) remain elusive. One of the major open questions is whether the mass of the exploding whit…
