Symbiotic stars as possible progenitors of SNe Ia: binary parameters and overall outlook

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Symbiotic stars are interacting binaries in which the first-formed white dwarf accretes and burns material from a red giant companion. This paper aims at presenting physical characteristics of these objects and discussing their possible link with progenitors of type Ia supernovae.
