Symbiotic Stars as Possible Progenitors of SNe Ia: Binary Parameters and Overall Outlook
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 January 2013
Abstract
Symbiotic stars are interacting binaries in which the first-formed white dwarf accretes and burns material from a red giant companion. This paper aims at presenting physical characteristics of these objects and discussing their possible link with progenitors of Type Ia supernovae.
