Table 2

Parametric study of the parameter space Tosc × u0 with the conservative code HERACLES, for the case of a cold C+O white dwarf (upper table) and 0.01 M helium layer (lower table).

Notes.Perturbations are initiated at the optimal radius (r0 = 350  km), corresponding to the maximum in Fig. 7. The period Tosc = 72 ms corresponds to a wavelength of λ0 = 0.5  RWD at the optimal radius of 350 km. Numbers in the table correspond to the number of shocks needed for detonation ignition.
