Constraining Type Ia Supernovae Progenitor Parameters via Light Curves

I study thermonuclear explosions of White Dwarf (WD) stars, or so-called Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). A WD is the final stage of stellar evolution of a star with an initial mass of less than 8 Solar masses, and the thermonuclear explosion occurs either when the WD is in a close binary system where m...
