Critical Mass Transfer in Double-Degenerate Type Ia Supernovae
Doubly-degenerate binary systems consisting of two white dwarfs both composed of carbon and oxygen and close enough that mass is transferred from the less massive to the more massive are possible progenitors of type Ia supernovae. If the mass transfer rate is slow enough that the accreting white dwarf can reach a mass of 1.38M⊙ then it can ignite carbon degenerately at its centre. This can lead...
متن کاملThe single-degenerate channel for the progenitor of type Ia supernovae with different metallicities
The single-degenerate channel for the progenitors of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are currently accepted, in which a carbon-oxygen white dwarf (CO WD) accretes hydrogen-rich material from its companion, increases its mass to the Chandrasekhar mass limit, and then explodes as a SN Ia. Incorporating the prescription of Hachisu et al. (1999a) for the accretion efficiency into Eggleton’s stellar evo...
متن کاملTHE DELAY TIME DISTRIBUTION OF TYPE Ia SUPERNOVAE AND THE SINGLE DEGENERATE MODEL
We present a theoretical delay time distribution (DTD) of Type Ia supernovae on the basis of our new evolutionary models of single degenerate (SD) progenitor systems. Our model DTD has almost a featureless power law shape (∝ t−n with n ≈ 1) for the delay time from t ∼ 0.1 to 10 Gyr. This is in good agreement with the recent direct measurement of DTD. The observed featureless property of the DTD...
متن کاملGravitational wave emission from the single-degenerate channel of Type Ia supernovae.
The thermonuclear explosion of a C/O white dwarf as a Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) generates a kinetic energy comparable to that released by a massive star during a SN II event. Current observations and theoretical models have established that SNe Ia are asymmetric, and therefore--like SNe II--potential sources of gravitational wave (GW) radiation. We perform the first detailed calculations of the...
متن کاملType Ia Supernovae
Type Ia Supernovae are in many aspects still enigmatic objects. Their observational and theoretical exploration is in full swing, but we still have plenty to learn about these explosions. Recent years have already witnessed a bonanza of supernova observations. The increased samples from dedicated searches have allowed the statistical investigation of Type Ia Supernovae as a class. The observati...
