Electron-capture Supernovae as Sources of 60 Fe
We investigate the nucleosynthesis of the radionuclide Fe in electron-capture supernovae (ECSNe). The nucleosynthetic results are based on a self-consistent, two-dimensional simulation of an ECSN as well as models in which the densities are systematically increased by some factors (low-entropy models). Fe is found to be appreciably made in neutron-rich ejecta during the nuclear quasiequilibrium...
متن کاملELECTRON - CAPTURE SUPERNOVAE AS ORIGIN OF 48 Ca
We report that electron-capture supernovae (ECSNe), arising from collapsing oxygen-neonmagnesium cores, are a possible source of Ca, whose origin has remained a long-standing puzzle. Our two-dimensional, self-consistent explosion model of an ECSN predicts ejection of neutron-rich matter with electron fractions Ye ≈ 0.40–0.42 and relatively low entropies, s ≈ 13–15 kB per nucleon (kB is the Bolt...
متن کاملProbing Electron-capture Supernovae: X-ray Binaries in Starbursts
We develop population models of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) formed after bursts of star formation and we investigate the effect of electron-capture supernovae (ECS) of massive ONeMg white dwarfs and the hypothesis that ECS events are associated with typically low supernova kicks imparted to the nascent neutron stars. We identify an interesting ECS bump in the time evolution of HMXB numbers...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Instabilities in Close Binary Systems Frederic
Equilibrium uid con gurations for close binary systems can become globally unstable. Instabilities arise from the strong tidal interaction between the two components, which tends to make the e ective two-body potential governing the orbital motion steeper than 1=r. As a result, a circular orbit can become unstable to small radial perturbations. The instability can be either secular or dynamical...
متن کاملThe Formation of Close Binary Systems
A viable solution to the origin of close binary systems, unaccounted for in recent theories, is presented. Fragmentation, occurring at the end of the secondary collapse phase (during which molecular hydrogen is dissociating), can form binary systems with separations less than 1 au. Two fragmentation modes are found to occur after the collapse is halted. The rst consists of the fragmentation of ...
