Type Ia Supernovae and Remnant Neutron Stars
On the basis of the current observational evidence, we put forward the case that the merger of two CO white dwarfs produces both a Type Ia supernova explosion and a stellar remnant, the latter in the form of a magnetar. The estimated occurrence rates raise the possibility that many, if not most, SNe Ia might result from white dwarf mergers.
متن کاملFrom Multifragmentation to Supernovae and Neutron Stars
The thermodynamics properties of globally neutral dense stellar matter are analyzed both in terms of mean field instabilities and structures beyond the mean field. The mean field response to finite wavelenght fluctuations is calculated with the realistic Sly230a effective interaction. A Monte Carlo simulation of a schematic lattice Hamiltonian shows the importance of calculations beyond the mea...
متن کاملNeutron-capture nucleosynthesis in AGB stars
Recent AGB models including diffusive overshoot or rotational effects suggest the partial mixing (PM) of protons from the H-rich envelope into the C-rich layers during the third dredge-up. In order to study the impact of such a mixing on the surface abundances, nucleosynthesis calculations based on stellar AGB models are performed for different assumptions of protons (ranging from Xmix p = 10 −...
متن کاملNeutron-Capture Element Abundances in Halo Stars
Abundance comparisons of neutron-capture elements – those formed in slow (sprocess) and rapid (r-process) neutron-capture nucleosynthesis – are providing important new information about the nature of the earliest Galactic nucleosynthesis and the first stellar generations (see recent reviews by Truran et al. 2002, Sneden & Cowan 2003 and Cowan & Thielemann 2004). Most previous studies have been ...
متن کاملHydrogen Electron Capture in Accreting Neutron Stars and the Resulting g-Mode Oscillation Spectrum
We investigate hydrogen electron capture in the ocean of neutron stars accreting at rates 10 ∼< Ṁ ∼< 10 M⊙ yr . These stars burn the accreted hydrogen and helium unstably in the upper atmosphere (ρ ∼< 10 6 g cm) and accumulate material which usually contains some small amounts of hydrogen (mass fractions are typically Xr ≈ 0.1− 0.2) mixed in with the heavier iron group ashes. The subsequent evo...
