Accretion induced collapse of white dwarfs in binary systems and their observational properties (2009)

Wickramasinghe, Dayal, Hurley, Jarrod R., Ferrario, Lilia, Tout, Christopher A., Kiel, Paul D.

Neutron stars can form through core collapse (CC) following a supernova explosion of a massive star, or from a white dwarf that first forms in a binary system and then collapses into a neutron star...

VV Pup in a low state: secondary-star irradiation or stellar activity? (2008)

Mason, Elena, Howell, Steve B., Barman, Travis, Szkody, Paula, Wickramasinghe, Dayal

Aims. Emission lines in polars show complex profiles with multiple components that are typically ascribed to the accretion stream, threading region, accretion spot, and the irradiated secondary-star....

Planets around White Dwarfs (2007)

Jianke Li, Lilia Ferrario, Dayal Wickramasinghe

The fate of a planetary system like our own, as the parent star expands through the red giant phase and becomes a white dwarf (WD) has been a topic of some discussion. For an Earth-like inner planet,...

Jianke Li, Lilia Ferrario, Dayal Wickramasinghe, The Mount Stromlo, Siding Spring Observatories

The fate of a planetary system like our own, as the parent star expands through the red giant phase and becomes a white dwarf has been a topic of some discussion. While it appears certain that the...

The birth properties of Galactic millisecond radio pulsars (2007)

Ferrario, Lilia, Wickramasinghe, Dayal

We model the population characteristics of the sample of millisecond pulsars within a distance of 1.5kpc.We find that for a braking index n=3, the birth magnetic field distribution of the neutron...

Modelling of isolated radio pulsars and magnetars on the fossil field hypothesis (2006)

Ferrario, Lilia, Wickramasinghe, Dayal

We explore the hypothesis that the magnetic fields of neutron stars are of fossil origin. For parametrised models of the distribution of magnetic flux on the Main Sequence and of the birth spin...

How far can we trust type Ia supernovae as standard candles? (2005)

Wickramasinghe, Dayal, Tout, Christopher A., Regos, Eniko, Hurley, Jarrod, Pols, Onno

We review the various possibilities that have been proposed as progenitors of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the point of view of binary evolution and population synthesis. Depending on the nature...

Could edge-lit type Ia supernovae be standard candles? (2003)

Regös, Enikö, Tout, Christopher A., Wickramasinghe, Dayal, Hurley, Jarrod R., Pols, Onno R.

The progenitors of Type la supernovae (SNe Ia) have not been identified. Though they are no longer fashionable, we investigate the consequences if a significant number of SNe la were edge-lit...
