Hydrodynamic Studies of the Evolution of Recurrent, Symbiotic and Dwarf Novae: the White Dwarf Components are Growing in Mass

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2012
Symbiotic binaries are systems containing white dwarfs (WDs) and red giants. Symbiotic novae are those systems in which thermonuclear eruptions occur on the WD components.

Recent near-Earth supernovae probed by global deposition of interstellar radioactive 60Fe

open access: yesNature, 2016
The rate of supernovae in our local Galactic neighbourhood within a distance of about 100 parsecs from Earth is estimated to be one every 2–4 million years, based on the total rate in the Milky Way (2.0 ± 0.7 per century).

The Evolution of Compact Binary Star Systems

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2006
We review the formation and evolution of compact binary stars consisting of white dwarfs (WDs), neutron stars (NSs), and black holes (BHs). Binary NSs and BHs are thought to be the primary astrophysical sources of gravitational waves (GWs) within the ...

Cosmic ray contributions from rapidly rotating stellar mass black holes: cosmic Ray GeV to EeV proton and anti-proton sources

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
In Radio Super Novae (RSNe) a magnetic field of (B × r) = 1016.0±0.12 Gauss × cm is observed; these are the same numbers for Blue Super Giant (BSG) star explosions as for Red Super Giant (RSG) star explosions, despite their very different wind properties.

The Diversity of Type Ia Supernovae from Broken Symmetries

open access: yes, 2009
Type Ia supernovae result when carbon-oxygen white dwarfs in binary systems accrete mass from companion stars, reach a critical mass, and explode. The near uniformity of their light curves makes these supernovae good standard candles for measuring cosmic

Application of the Magnetar Engine to an Intermediate-Luminosity Gamma-Ray Burst Associated with the Supernova GRB 201015A/SN 201015A

open access: yesUniverse
We present optical photometry for the afterglow of GRB 201015A, which can be classified as a medium-luminosity gamma-ray burst (Lγ,iso≈2.55×1049ergs−1 ) and the associated underlying supernova SN 201015A.

Supernova theory and supernova 1987A

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1987
The implications of Supernova 1987A are examined and compared with theoretical expectations. The relatively low luminosity follows from the progenitor having lower than solar abundances. The explosion energy is (1.0-2.0) x 10 to the 51st ergs for a 15 solar mass star.

Explosive nucleosynthesis and beyond: Energy generation in supernovae from massive progenitors [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Massive stars (initial mass ≳10M⊙, where M⊙ is the mass of the Sun) end their life through violent explosions known as core-collapse supernovae, which are supposed to be among the brightest events of the universe.
