We call this type of explosion a "Type Ia supernova" ("Type Ia" is a historical moniker from before we understood what was exploding), and the supernova completely obliterates the white dwarf. They suggest that two compact stellar remnants – black holes, neutron stars or white dwarfs – collided and merged together. Teukolsky, “Black holes, White dwarfs and Neutron stars: The physics of compact objects” (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 1983).

Black holes, like neutron stars, white dwarfs and normal stars, also have strong magnetic fields that get even stronger the closer you get to the event horizon, or the point from which light cannot escape. Chandra also finds regions aglow with the light of massive young stars. These are produced by normal stars feeding material onto the compact, dense remains of stars that have reached the end of their evolutionary trail – white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. The trio would thereby be sensitive to the gravitational waves produced by small, dense objects orbiting one another, objects like white dwarfs, neutron stars and, most excitingly, black holes. For an introduction to degenerate matter, followed by a description the various stages of a stellar remnant's collapse preceding the possible formation of a black hole, see here. Thumbnail of image, Near-infrared image of young binary stars with a faint companion (a planet?). It finds a sea of hot gas enveloping thousands of white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Once the last of the red dwarfs exhaust their fuel, all nuclear fusion in the universe will have ceased. The Royal Astronomical Society that suggest that two "compact stellar remnants" - which could be neutron stars, black holes or white dwarfs - collided and merged, resulting in a short-duration gamma-ray burst that hit Earth. The connected arrow goes to the left because their X-ray luminosities could be 2x10^30 erg/s or lower). An artist's impression of the merger of two neutron stars. Short duration gamma-ray bursts are thought to be caused by the merger of some combination of white dwarfs, neutron stars or black holes. Eventually, in 100 trillion years, the last stars will have died, all that remains are their corpses: white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Black holes, white dwarfs, neutron stars and quasars emit an extremely strong, pulsing beam of Light, which is made up of the spectrum of Light waves that include Ultra-Violet.
