Mass Loss and Subsequent Thermal Evolution of Surviving Helium White Dwarfs Shocked by Thermonuclear Supernovae

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Tin Long Sunny Wong, Tin Long Sunny Wong, , , | Summary: Following a type Ia supernova (SN Ia) in a double white dwarf (WD) binary, a surviving WD companion leaves at its orbital velocity $approx 1$,000 – 3,000 km/s. The Gaia mission has discovered seven such […]

Type IIb Supernova Progenitors in 3D: Variability and Episodic Mass Loss revealed by Radiation-Hydrodynamics Simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Jared A. Goldberg, Jared A. Goldberg, , , | Summary: We present the first 3D Radiation-Hydrodynamics simulations of partially-stripped ($M_mathrmcoresim10M_odot$, $M_mathrmenvsim0.1-1M_odot$) Yellow Supergiant ($Lsim10^5$, $T_mathrmeffapprox5000-8000$K) envelopes, constructed with Athena++. These envelope models represent the progenitors of Type IIb supernovae (SNe-IIb), which have lost a substantial fraction of […]

Emergent gauge flux in QED$_3$ with flavor chemical potential: application to magnetized U(1) Dirac spin liquids

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Chuang Chen, Chuang Chen, , , | Summary: We design a lattice model of non-compact U(1) gauge field coupled to fermions with a flavor chemical potential and solve it with large-scale determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations. For zero flavor chemical potential, the model realizes three-dimensional quantum electrodynamics […]

The First Day of a Type Ia Supernova from a Double-Degenerate Binary

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Gabriel Kumar, Gabriel Kumar, , , | Summary: Supernovae in binary star systems involve a hydrodynamical interaction between the ejecta and a binary companion. This collision results in shock heating and a modified density structure for the ejecta, both of which affect the light curve. As highlighted […]

Increasing single-photon production with cavity-QED

Kavli Affiliate: John E. Bowers | First 5 Authors: Chen Shang, Weng W. Chow, Galan Moody, John E. Bowers, | Summary: A study was performed to determine the extent cavity enhancement may increase single-photon production while maintaining single-photon purity. It was found that certain combinations of cavity lifetime and light-matter coupling strength can lead to […]
