SUMMARY:Type Ia Supernovae and Heavy Metals From Dark Matter\, Theory 
 Seminar (High Energy/Cosmology)\, Joseph Bramante\, University of Notr
 e Dame
DESCRIPTION:Recent studies of low-redshift type Ia supernovae indicate
 <br>
\nthat at least half explode from sub-Chandrasekhar mass progenit
 or<br>
\nwhite dwarfs. This talk explains how asymmetric dark matter w
 ould<br>
\nignite white dwarfs\, and form star-destroying black holes 
 inside old<br>
\nneutron stars inhabiting regions densely populated wi
 th dark matter.<br>
\nLinks between dark matter and the anomalously hi
 gh heavy metal<br>
\nabundance of Reticulum II will also be discussed.
