Accreting White Dwarfs: From exoplanetary probes to classical novae and Type Ia supernovae

This book describes the accretion process onto white dwarf stars across a broad range of astrophysical settings from the accretion of tidally disrupted bodies in exoplanetary systems to cataclysmic variables, the classical nova explosions, and Type Ia supernova explosions triggered by accretion onto white dwarfs.
