Three-component Phase Separation for Ultramassive White Dwarf Models
We investigate phase separation in oxygen-neon (O/Ne) ultramassive white dwarfs (UMWDs). Current stellar evolution codes, such as MESA, only account for ^16 O/ ^20 Ne separation and do not include other minor species. To improve this, we implement ternary phase diagrams into MESA. We construct UMWD...
