Models of classical novae with MESA
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2017-06)
Treball Final de Grau
Accés obertClassical novae are thermonuclear runaways at the envelope of a WD due to the piling up of H-rich accreted material. They have been observed to produce heavy elements during the explosion, and their role in galactical ... -
Models of stellar winds from X-ray bursts
