Nickel-rich outflows from accretion disks formed by the accretion-induced collapse of white dwarfs
A white dwarf (WD) approaching the Chandrasekhar mass may in several circumstances undergo accretion-induced collapse (AIC) to a neutron star (NS) before a thermonuclear explosion ensues. It has generally been assumed that such an accretioninduced collapse (AIC) does not produce a detectable supernova (SN). If, however, the progenitor WD is rapidly rotating (as may be expected due to its prior ...
متن کاملthe search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame
this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...
15 صفحه اولMagnetic Accretion Onto White Dwarfs
The influence of the magnetic field on process of the accretion onto White Dwarfs in Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) is discussed. Except for the Polars or AM Her objects, the strength of magnetic field can not be measured directly in CVs by modern techniques. But there is growing evidence that most of the types of Cataclysmic Variables classified on the basis of their observational characteristics...
متن کاملAccretion onto Magnetic White Dwarfs
Recent developments in the accretion onto magnetic white dwarfs are reviewed. Accreting magnetic white dwarfs display many of the characteristics of accreting systems of a galactic scale, with the advantage that in these systems the accreting material is collimated into a relatively well-determined 1-dimensional ow.
متن کاملThe accretion - diffusion scenario for metals in cool white dwarfs
We calculated diffusion timescales for Ca, Mg, Fe in hydrogen atmosphere white dwarfs with temperatures between 5000 and 25000 K. With these timescales we determined accretion rates for a sample of 38 DAZ white dwarfs from the recent studies of Zuckerman et al. (2003) and Koester et al. (2005). Assuming that the accretion rates can be calculated with the Bondi-Hoyle formula for hydrodynamic acc...
