Abstract
Type Ia supernovae are not only sources of the elements of “life”, but also “standard candles” for measuring distances in the Universe. To describe the process, a hydrodynamic model of white dwarfs that takes into account the nuclear combustion of carbon is constructed. It is closed by a stellar equation of state and supplemented by a Poisson equation for the gravitational potential. The results of a mathematical simulation of a white dwarf shock detonation and subsequent explosion of a type Ia supernova are described. The computational experiments have shown that the dynamics of the shock detonation is determined by the explosion energy and the ignition point. A study of scalability and energy efficiency of the software implementation are also performed.'
