Pathway to Type Iax Supernovae: 3D Hydrodynamical Sim. of Oxygen-Neon and Carbon-Oxygen White Dwarf
by Chackochan Joji

Abstract: В В В В

Type Ia supernovae ( SNe Ia) are among the most common types of luminous astrophysical transien ts. They are thought to arise from the thermonuclear explosion of mass-acc reting white dwarfs (WDs) in binary systems. Due to their consistent peak luminosities\, SNe Ia are used as standardizable candles to measure the ex pansion rate of the universe. A subluminous subclass of these events\, kno wn as Type Iax supernovae\, is believed to be the result of a failed or pa rtial detonation of WDs. Pa 30 has recently been identiп¬Ѓed as the remnan t of the historical supernova SN 1181\, which reveals an unusual п¬Ѓlament ary morphology with a WD at its center. Recent studies indicate that SN 11 81 was likely a sub-luminous event\, classiп¬Ѓed as a Type Iax supernova\, possibly originating from a merger between carbon-oxygen (C/O) and oxygen -neon (O/Ne) WDs.

In this thesis\, we investigate failed detonatio ns of Type Iax supernovae within the context of the double-degenerate merg er channel. Speciп¬Ѓcally\, we consider a binary system consisting of a C/ O WD and an O/Ne WD. In this scenario\, the secondary C/O WD is tidally di srupted and merges with the O/Ne WD\, forming an accretion disk around the primary. Due to instabilities within the disk\, a carbon detonation is tr iggered on the surface of the primary\, while leaving it largely intact. T he total nuclear energy released in this event is lower than that of a nor mal SNe Ia\, consistent with the properties of the SNe Iax. We further exp lore the detonation mechanism\, the characteristics of the resulting remna nt\, and the broader implications of this model for understanding the phys ics of Type Iax supernovae.
