High‑Velocity White Dwarfs Reveal New Pathway to Type Ia Supernovae
Hybrid white dwarf collisions can fling the lighter star at about 4.5 million mph, enough to leave the Mil Way. Type Ia supernovae occur only twice per millennium in our galaxy. getnews.me/high-velocity-white-dwar... #typeia #whitedwarf

Image of the Pinwheel Galaxy (M101) with the newly discovered Type Ia supernova PTF11kly indicated by an arrow. This relatively close supernova, only 21 million light-years away, offers a unique opportunity to study this type of stellar explosion in detail. The image is a composite from various telescopes.

Four panels showcasing x-ray images of supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Clockwise from top left, the SNRs depict ages of 600, 1500, 10,000, and 13,000 years, illustrating the expansion of cosmic debris from stellar explosions (Type Ia & Type II). The lower left SNR shows a neutron star at its center.
