White Dwarf Models for Type I Supernovae and Quiet Supernovae, and Presupernova Evolution
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Supernova mechanisms in accreting white dwarfs (WDs) are presented, i.e., the carbon deflagration as a plausible mechanism for producing Type I supernovae and electron captures to form quiet supernovae leaving neutron stars. These outcomes depend on accretion rate of helium, initial mass and composition of the WD. The various types of hydrogen shell-burning in the présupernova stage are also discussed.
