The first binary star evolution model producing a Chandrasekhar mass white dwarf
Today, Type Ia supernovae are essential tools for cosmology, and recognized as major contributors to the chemical evolution of galaxies. The construction of detailed supernova progenitor models, however, was so far prevented by various physical and numerical difficulties in simulating binary systems with an accreting white dwarf component, e.g., unstable helium shell burning which may cause sig...
متن کاملEvolution 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...
متن کاملFinding Planets around White Dwarf Remnants of Massive Stars
Planet frequency shows a strong positive correlation with host mass from the hydrogen-burning limit to M = 2M⊙. No search has yet been conducted for planets of higher-mass hosts because all existing techniques are insensitive to these planets. We show that infrared observations of the white-dwarf (WD) remnants of massive stars 3M⊙ <M < 7M⊙ would be sensitive to these planets for reasons that ar...
متن کاملThe Possible White Dwarf{neutron Star Connection
The current status of the problem of whether neutron stars can form, in close binary systems, by accretion{induced collapse (AIC) of white dwarfs is examined. We nd that, in principle, both initially cold C+O white dwarfs in the high{mass tail of their mass distribution in binaries and O+Ne+Mg white dwarfs can produce neutron stars. Which fractions of neutron stars in diierent types of binaries...
متن کاملDetached white dwarf main-sequence star binaries
We initiated a comprehensive state of the art binary population synthesis study of white dwarf main-sequence star (WDMS) binaries to serve as a foundation for subsequent studies on pre-cataclysmic variables, double white dwarfs, and white dwarf + B-star binaries. We considered seven distinct formation channels subdivided into three main groups according to the evolutionary process that gives ri...
