[edit] Summary
| Description |
English: Creation of a type Ia supernova.
1: Close binary star system. Star B has a heigher mass than star A. 2: Star B evolves into a red giant. 3: The red giant (B) expands beyond its Roche lobe and mass starts to transfer to A. 4: B losses mass and A gains mass. 5: B degenerates into a white dwarf. 6: Star A evolves into a red giant. Mass transfers to B. 7: While A losses mass, B gains mass and approaches the Chandrasekhar limit. 8: Star B explodes in a type Ia supernova. 9: Star A is left and it also, in time, degenrates into a white dwarf.Dansk: Skabelsen af en type Ia supernova
1: Tæt dobbeltstjernesystem. Stjerne B har en højere masse end stjerne A. 2: Stjerne B udvikler sig til en rød kæmpe. 3: Den røde kæmpe (B) udvider sig udover sin Roche sløjfe og masse overføres til A. 4: B taber masse og A vinder masse. 5: B degenererer til en hvid dværg. 6: Stjerne A udvikler sig til en rød kæmpe. Masse overføres til stjerne B. 7: Mens A taber masse, vinder B masse og nærmer sig Chandrasekhar-grænsen. 8: Stjerne B eksploderer i en type Ia supernova. 9: Stjerne A er tilbage og degenererer også til en hvid dværg på et tidspunkt. |
