New evolutionary sequences for hot H-deficient white dwarfs on the basis of a full account of progenitor evolution

L. G. Althaus, J. A. Panei, M. M. Miller Bertolami +5

We present full evolutionary calculations appropriate for the study of hot hydrogen-deficent DO white dwarfs, PG 1159 stars, and DB white dwarfs. White dwarf sequences are computed…

Shaping point- and mirror-symmetric proto-planetary nebulae by the orbital motion of the central binary system

Sinhue A. R. Haro-Corzo, Pablo F. Velazquez, Alejandro C. Raga +2

We present 3D hydrodynamical simulations of a jet launched from the secondary star of a binary system inside a proto-planetary nebula. The secondary star moves around the primary i…

Hot C-rich white dwarfs: testing the DB-DQ transition through pulsations

A. H. Córsico, A. D. Romero, L. G. Althaus +1

Hot DQ white dwarfs constitute a new class of white dwarf stars, uncovered recently within the framework of the SDSS project. Recently, three hot DQ white dwarfs have been reported…

Evolution and colors of helium-core white dwarf stars with high-metallicity progenitors

L. G. Althaus, J. A. Panei, A. D. Romero +4

Motivated by the recent detection of single and binary He-core white dwarfs in metal-rich clusters, we present a full set of evolutionary calculations and colors appropriate for th…

High-resolution Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics simulations of the merger of binary white dwarfs

P. Lorén-Aguilar, J. Isern, E. García-Berro

We present the results of a set of high-resolution simulations of the merging process of two white dwarfs. In order to do so, we use an up-to-date Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics c…

Seismological constraints on the high-gravity DOV stars PG2131+066 and PG 1707+427

A. H. Córsico, L. G. Althaus, M. M. Miller Bertolami +1

A seismological study of the pulsating PG1159 stars PG2131+066 and PG 1707+427 is presented. We perform extensive adiabatic computations of g-mode pulsation periods of PG1159 evolu…
