The accretion of hydrogen-rich matter onto a white dwarf of one solar mass. Taam, R. E. ; Faulkner, J. Abstract We have followed the thermonuclear runaways which develop when white dwarfs of 1 M0 accrete hydrogenrich material at 10-10 M0 per annum, a canonical rate of accretion which would accompany the emission of gravitational radiation in ultrashort-period binaries. The existence of such thermonuclear effects is a necessar but not sufficient criterion for gravitational radiation to play an important role in the evolution of these binaries.
