Description
English: An artist’s impression showing a two-star system, with a white dwarf in the foreground undergoing a micronova and a companion star in the background.
Français : Vue d'artiste montrant un système de deux étoiles, une naine blanche au premier plan et son compagnon en arrière-plan. La naine blanche aspire du gaz de son compagnon, qui est canalisé vers ses pôles. Lorsque ce matériau tombe sur la surface chaude de la naine blanche, il déclenche à l'un de ses pôles une explosion de type micronova.
