Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are important distance indicators, element factories, cosmic-ray
accelerators, kinetic-energy sources in galaxy evolution, and end points of stellar binary …

After the Big Bang, production of heavy elements in the early Universe takes place starting
from the formation of the first stars, their evolution, and explosion. The first supernova …

Abstract Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play a key role in the fields of astrophysics and
cosmology. It is widely accepted that SNe Ia arise from thermonuclear explosions of white …

We present results for a suite of 14 three-dimensional, high-resolution hydrodynamical
simulations of delayed-detonation models of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) explosions. This …

We report on work to increase the number of well-measured Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at
high redshifts. Light curves, including high signal-to-noise Hubble Space Telescope data …

The explosive death of a star as a supernova is one of the most dramatic events in the
Universe. Supernovae have an outsized impact on many areas of astrophysics: they are …

Astrophysicists are increasingly taking into account the effects of orbiting companions on
stellar evolution. New discoveries have underlined the role of binary star interactions in a …

There is a consensus that type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) arise from the thermonuclear
explosion of white dwarf stars that accrete matter from a binary companion. However, direct …

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play an important role in astrophysics and are crucial for the
studies of stellar evolution, galaxy evolution and cosmology. They are generally thought to …

ABSTRACT The progenitors of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are still unknown, despite
significant progress during the past several years in theory and observations. Violent …
