The nearby supernova SN 2011fe can be observed in unprecedented detail. Therefore, it is an important test case for Type Ia (SN Ia) models, which may bring us closer to understanding the physical nature of these objects. Here, we explore how available and expected future observations used constrain explosion scenarios. We base our discussion on three-dimensional simulations a delayed detonation Chandrasekhar-mass white dwarf violent merger two dwarfs-realizations models appropriate most...

Ultra-compact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) are low-mass with hydrogen-deficient mass-donors and ultra-short orbital periods. They have been suggested to be the potential Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) sources in low-frequency region. Several channels for formation of UCXBs proposed so far. In this article, we carried out a systematic study on He star donor channel, which neutron (NS) accretes matter from main-sequence through Roche-lobe overflow, where mass-transfer is driven by...

Ultra-massive white dwarfs (UMWDs) with masses larger than 1.05Msun are basically believed to harbour oxygen-neon (ONe) cores. Recently, Gaia data reveals an enhancement of UMWDs on Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD), which indicates that extra cooling delay mechanism such as crystallization and elemental sedimentation may exist in the UMWDs. Further studies suggested a portion should have experienced pretty long delays, implying they carbon-oxygen (CO) WDs. However, formation these UMCOWDs...

Abstract Although multidimensional simulations have investigated the processes of double white dwarf (WD) mergers, postmerger evolution only focused on carbon–oxygen (CO) or helium (He) WD merger remnants. In this work, we investigate for first time remnants stemming from oxygen–neon (ONe) WDs with CO WDs. Our simulation results indicate that can evolve to hydrogen- and helium-deficient giants a maximum radius about 300 R ⊙ . models show evidence more massive than 1.95 M ignite Ne before...

The double-degenerate model, involving the merger of double carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (CO WDs), is one two classic models for progenitors type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). Previous studies suggested that off-centre carbon burning would occur if mass-accretion rate (Macc) relatively high during merging process, leading to formation oxygen-neon (ONe) cores may collapse into neutron stars. However, still incompletely understood, especially when inwardly propagating wave reaches centre. In this...

Context. Although type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play a key role in astrophysics, the companions of exploding carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (CO WDs) are still not completely identified. It has been suggested recently that He-rich WD (a He or hybrid HeCO WD) merges with CO may produce an SN Ia. This theory was based on double-detonation model, which shock compression core caused by surface explosion shell might lead to whole WD. However, so far, very few binary population synthesis (BPS) studies...

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play a crucial role in studying cosmology and galactic chemical evolution. They are thought to be thermonuclear explosions of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (CO WDs) when their masses reach the Chandrasekar mass limit binaries. Previous studies have suggested that He novae may progenitor candidates SNe Ia. However, retention efficiencies during nova outbursts still uncertain. In this article, we aim study investigate whether can produced through outbursts. Using...
