  • Type Ia Supernovae As Stellar Endpoints and Cosmological Tools
    REVIEW Published 14 Jun 2011 | DOI: 10.1038/ncomms1344 Type Ia supernovae as stellar endpoints and cosmological tools D. Andrew Howell1,2 Empirically, Type Ia supernovae are the most useful, precise, and mature tools for determining astronomical distances. Acting as calibrated candles they revealed the presence of dark energy and are being used to measure its properties. However, the nature of the Type Ia explosion, and the progenitors involved, have remained elusive, even after seven decades of research. But now, new large surveys are bringing about a paradigm shift—we can finally compare samples of hundreds of supernovae to isolate critical variables. As a result of this, and advances in modelling, breakthroughs in understanding all aspects of these supernovae are finally starting to happen. uest stars (who could have imagined they were distant stellar explosions?) have been surprising humans for at least 950 years, but probably far longer. They amazed and confounded the likes of Tycho, Kepler and Galileo, to name a few. But it was not until the separation of these events G 1 into novae and supernovae by Baade and Zwicky that progress understanding them began in earnest . This process of splitting a diverse group into related subsamples to yield insights into their origin would be repeated again and again over the years, first by Minkowski when he separated supernovae of Type I (no hydrogen in their spectra) from Type II (have hydrogen)2, and then by Elias et al. when they deter- mined that Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) were distinct3. We now define Type Ia supernovae as those without hydrogen or helium in their spectra, but with strong ionized silicon (SiII), which has observed absorption lines at 6,150, 5,800 and 4,000 Å (ref.

  • Nucleosynthesis in Thermonuclear Supernovae
    Nucleosynthesis in thermonuclear supernovae Ivo Seitenzahl and Dean Townsley Abstract The explosion energy of thermonuclear (Type Ia) supernovae is derived from the difference in nuclear binding energy liberated in the explosive fusion of light “fuel” nuclei, predominantly carbon and oxygen, into more tightly bound nu- clear “ash” dominated by iron and silicon group elements. The very same explosive thermonuclear fusion event is also one of the major processes contributing to the nucleosynthesis of the heavy elements, in particular the iron-group elements. For example, most of the iron and manganese in the Sun and its planetary system was produced in thermonuclear supernovae. Here, we review the physics of explosive thermonuclear burning in carbon-oxygen white dwarf material and the methodolo- gies utilized in calculating predicted nucleosynthesis from hydrodynamic explosion models. While the dominant explosion scenario remains unclear, many aspects of the nuclear combustion and nucleosynthesis are common to all models and must occur in some form in order to produce the observed yields. We summarize the predicted nucleosynthetic yields for existing explosions models, placing particular emphasis on characteristic differences in the nucleosynthetic signatures of the dif- ferent suggested scenarios leading to Type Ia supernovae. Following this, we discuss how these signatures compare with observations of several individual supernovae, remnants, and the composition of material in our Galaxy and galaxy clusters.
