The chemical composition of carbon stars: The R-type stars (2009)
Zamora, Olga, Abia, Carlos, Plez, Bertrand, Dominguez, Inmaculada, Cristallo, Sergio
The aim of this work is to shed some light on the problem of the formation of carbon stars of R-type from a detailed study of their chemical composition. We use high-resolution and high...
Pulsating reverse detonation models of Type Ia supernovae. II: Explosion (2009)
Bravo, Eduardo, Garcia-Senz, Domingo, Cabezon, Ruben M., Dominguez, Inmaculada
Observational evidences point to a common explosion mechanism of Type Ia supernovae based on a delayed detonation of a white dwarf. However, all attempts to find a convincing ignition mechanism based...
Badenes, Carles, Bravo, Eduardo, Borkowski, Kazimierz J., Dominguez, Inmaculada
The explosion mechanism behind Type Ia supernovae is a matter of continuing debate. The diverse attempts to identify or at least constrain the physical processes involved in the explosion have been...
