- New evidence that some supernovae may be a “double detonation”
Boom boom New evidence that some supernovae may be a “double detonation” It may be possible to blow up a white dwarf before it reaches a critical mass
- Astronomers Find Direct Evidence Of Elusive Double-Detonation . . .
Astronomers uncover the first direct evidence for how some white dwarf stars explode, confirming the long-debated double-detonation mechanism behind certain Type Ia supernovae
- Double detonation: new image shows remains of star destroyed . . .
For the first time, astronomers have obtained visual evidence that a star met its end by detonating twice By studying the centuries-old remains of supernova SNR 0509-67 5 with the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT), they have found patterns that confirm its star suffered a pair of explosive blasts Published today, this discovery shows some of the most
- Massive double detonation spotted by astronomers for the . . .
Some stars are so primed for greatness that they blow up twice For the first time, a team of astronomers have found direct visual evidence of a star that met its fiery end by detonating two times
- First-ever evidence of star double detonation captured in . . .
For the first time, astronomers have captured stunning visual evidence of a star double-detonating itself to death
- Astronomers capture incredible 1st image of a dead star that . . .
You may only live once, but some stars die twice Astronomers have now discovered the first visual evidence of such a stellar event, a dead star that underwent a so-called "double-detonation " This could indicate that some stars could go supernova without reaching the so-called Chandrasekhar limit, the minimum mass that a star needs to go
- Astronomers capture stunning evidence of star’s double . . .
But a rarer kind of supernova involves a different type of star – a stellar ember called a white dwarf – and a double detonation Researchers have obtained photographic evidence of this type of supernova for the first time, using the European Southern Observatory’s Chile- based Very Large Telescope
