Remnant evolution after a carbon-oxygen white dwarf merger

We systematically explore the evolution of the merger of two carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarfs. The dynamical evolution of a 0.9 M⊙ + 0.6 M⊙ CO white dwarf merger is followed by a three-dimensional SPH simulation. The calculation uses a state-of-the art equation of state that is coupled to an efficient nuclear reaction network that accurately approximates all stages from helium burning up to nucl...

Evolution of Neutron-star, Carbon-oxygen White-dwarf Binaries

We consider the evolution of neutron-star (ns), carbon-oxygen white-dwarf (co) binaries, using both the Bethe & Brown (1998) schematic analytic evolutions and the Portegies Zwart & Yungelson (1998) numerical population syntheses. The scenario in which the circular neutron-star, carbon-oxygen white-dwarf binaries (ns, co)c have gone through common envelope evolution is considered. In conventiona...

Crystallization of carbon-oxygen mixtures in white dwarf stars.

We determine the phase diagram for dense carbon-oxygen mixtures in white dwarf (WD) star interiors using molecular dynamics simulations involving liquid and solid phases. Our phase diagram agrees well with predictions from Ogata et al. and from Medin and Cumming and gives lower melting temperatures than Segretain et al. Observations of WD crystallization in the globular cluster NGC 6397 by Wing...

Coronae Borealis Stars: Evidence for White Dwarf Mergers

We have found that at least seven hydrogen-deficient carbon (HdC) and R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars, have O/O ratios close to and in some cases less than unity, values that are orders of magnitude lower than measured in other stars (the Solar value is 500). Greatly enhanced O is evident in every HdC and RCB we have measured that is cool enough to have detectable CO bands. The three HdC stars m...

Rare White dwarf stars with carbon atmospheres

White dwarfs represent the endpoint of stellar evolution for stars with initial masses between approximately 0.07 M⊙ and 8-10 M⊙, where M⊙ is the mass of the Sun (more massive stars end their life as either black holes or neutron stars). The theory of stellar evolution predicts that the majority of white dwarfs have a core made of carbon and oxygen, which itself is surrounded by a helium layer ...
