Scientific paper

Some results of a set of tridimensional calculations concerning the explosion of a white dwarf by means of a smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code are presented. The burning front advance is solved along with the hydrodynamics of the whole star, and a characterization of the front surface in terms of fractal concepts is done. Our main result indicates that the surface of the deflagration front sought at the largest scales of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability can be characterized as a fractal with a time-dependent dimension, D(t), whose value is 2 <= D(t) <= 2.4.
