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
\nthat at least half explode from sub-Chandrasekhar mass progenit
or
\nwhite dwarfs. This talk explains how asymmetric dark matter w
ould
\nignite white dwarfs\, and form star-destroying black holes
inside old
\nneutron stars inhabiting regions densely populated wi
th dark matter.
\nLinks between dark matter and the anomalously hi
gh heavy metal
\nabundance of Reticulum II will also be discussed.
