  1. Is it possible for the white dwarf in the three-star system 40 Eridani to take on too much from both of the other stars and have a massive star death rather than a normal white dwarf supernova star death? Would the supernova be more similar to massive star death or just be a slightly more powerful white dwarf star death?
