A SINGLE DEGENERATE PROGENITOR MODEL FOR TYPE Ia SUPERNOVAE HIGHLY EXCEEDING THE CHANDRASEKHAR MASS LIMIT
Work
Year: 2011
Type: article
Abstract: Recent observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) suggest that some of the progenitor white dwarfs (WDs) had masses up to 2.4–2.8 M☉, highly exceeding the Chandrasekhar mass limit. We present a new s... more
