Why do we care about binary stars?
- 50% of all stars are in binaries
- binary neutron star mergers make short -ray bursts
- (some kind of) white dwarf binaries are SNIa progenitors
- Low-mass X-ray binaries, black hole binaries, milli-secondpulsars, cataclysmic variables, symbiotic stars…
All compact binaries share some interesting physics- go through at least one common envelope phase- lose orbital angular momentum

Classical novae: explosive hydrogen shell burning
CO/ONeMg
H
• accretion builds up an envelope of hydrogen
• T & P at the base of the envelope increase
• Eventually, conditions for p-p fusion are met
• If the base of the envelope is degenerate,
• At , CNO burning takes over,
• Eventually, degeneracy is lifted, and the nova shell expands
• Enrichment in Ne is observed in some nova, suggests dredge-up fromthe white dwarf core
• are radioactive (-) with h.l. times of ~100-1000sdeposit large amounts of energy in the envelope

SNIa: the last seconds of an accreting white dwarf
• approaching the Chandrasehkar limit, WD rapidly shrinks
• ion gas (C/O) is not degenerate, hence heats up (P=NkT)
• C/O burning starts in the core, producing heavier elements up to iron
• nuclear flame propagates outwards:subsonic (deflagration) or supersonic (detonation)? Not well known
