Structure and evolution of ultra-massive white dwarfs in general relativity
[Context] Ultra-massive white dwarfs (M ABSTRACT 1.05 M) are of utmost importance in view of the role they play in type Ia supernovae explosions, merger events, the existence of high-magnetic-field white dwarfs, and the physical processes in the super asymptotic giant branch phase.

Structure and evolution of ultra-massive white dwarfs in general relativityAlthaus, Leandro G.Camisassa, María E.Torres, SantiagoBattich, TiaraCórsico, Alejandro H.Rebassa-Mansergas, AlbertoRaddi, RobertoStars: evolutionWhite dwarfsStars: interiors[Context] Ultra-massive white dwarfs (M ABSTRACT 1.05 M) are of utmost importance in view of the role they play in type Ia supernovae explosions, merger events, the existence of high-magnetic-field white dwarfs, and the physical processes in the super asymptotic giant branch phase.[Aims] We aim to present the first set of constant rest-mass ultra-massive oxygen-neon white dwarf cooling tracks with masses of M>1.29Mwhichfullytake into account the effects of general relativity on their structural and evolutionary properties.[Methods] We computed the full evolution sequences of 1.29, 1.31, 1.33, 1.35, and 1.369 Mwhite dwarfs with the La Plata stellar evolution code, LPCODE. For this work, the standard equations of stellar structure and evolution have been modified to include the effects of general relativity. Specifically, the fully general relativistic partial differential equations governing the evolution of a spherically symmetric star are solved in a way so that they resemble the standard Newtonian equations of stellar structure. For comparison purposes, the same sequences have been computed for the Newtonian case.[Results] According to our calculations, the evolutionary properties of the most massive white dwarfs are strongly modified by general relativity effects. In particular, the resulting stellar radius is markedly smaller in the general relativistic case, being up to 25% smaller than predicted by the Newtonian treatment for the more massive ones. We find that oxygen-neon white dwarfs more massive than 1.369 Mbecome gravitationally unstable with respect to general relativity effects. When core chemical distribution due to phase separation on crystallization is considered, such instability occurs at somewhat lower stellar masses, 1.36 M. In addition, cooling times for the most massive white dwarf sequences are about a factor of two smaller than in the Newtonian case at advanced stages of evolution. Finally, a sample of white dwarfs have been identified as ideal candidates to test these general relativistic effects.[Conclusions] We conclude that the general relativity effects should be taken into account for an accurate assessment of the structural and evolutionary properties of the most massive white dwarfs. These new ultra-massive white dwarf models constitute a considerable improvement over those computed in the framework of the standard Newtonian theory of stellar interiors.Part of this work was supported by PICT-2017-0884 from ANPCyT, PIP 112-20080100940 grant from CONICET, grant G149 from University of La Plata, NASA grants 80NSSC17K0008 and 80NSSC20K0193.
