The Origins of Lithium Enhancement in Polluted White Dwarfs

Benjamin C. Kaiser, J. Christopher Clemens, Simon Blouin +4

The bulk abundances of exoplanetesimals can be measured when they are accreted by white dwarfs. Recently, lithium from the accretion of exoplanetesimals was detected in relatively…

Lithium pollution of a white dwarf records the accretion of an extrasolar planetesimal

Benjamin C. Kaiser, J. Christopher Clemens, Simon Blouin +4

Tidal disruption and subsequent accretion of planetesimals by white dwarfs can reveal the elemental abundances of rocky bodies in exoplanetary systems. Those abundances provide inf…

Five New Post-Main-Sequence Debris Disks with Gaseous Emission

Erik Dennihy, Siyi Xu, Samuel Lai +13

Observations of debris disks, the products of the collisional evolution of rocky planetesimals, can be used to trace planetary activity across a wide range of stellar types. The mo…
