X-ray and Infrared Observations of Two Externally-Polluted White Dwarfs

M. Jura, M. P. Muno, J. Farihi +1

With XMM-Newton and the Spitzer Space Telescope, we obtain upper bounds to the X-ray fluxes from G29-38 and GD 362, and the 70 micron flux from G29-38. These data provide indirect…

57 second oscillations in Nova Centauri 1986 (V842 Cen)

P. A. Woudt, B. Warner, J. Osborne +1

High speed photometry in 2008 shows that the light curve of V842 Cen possesses a coherent modulation at 56.825 s, with sidebands at 56.598 s and 57.054 s. These have appeared since…

A new detailed examination of white dwarfs in NGC3532 and NGC2287

P. D. Dobbie, R. Napiwotzki, M. R. Burleigh +5

We present the results of a photometric and spectroscopic study of the white dwarf candidate members of the intermediate age open clusters NGC3532 and NGC2287. Of the nine objects…

Mass transfer in eccentric binaries: the new Oil-on-Water SPH technique

Ross P. Church, Johann Dischler, Melvyn B. Davies +3

To measure the onset of mass transfer in eccentric binaries we have developed a two-phase SPH technique. Mass transfer is important in the evolution of close binaries, and a key is…

High resolution optical spectroscopy of Praesepe white dwarfs

S. L. Casewell, P. D. Dobbie, R. Napiwotzki +3

We present the results of a high resolution optical spectroscopic study of nine white dwarf candidate members of Praesepe undertaken with the VLT and UVES. We find, contrary to a n…
