A systematic survey for hypervelocity runaways from thermonuclear supernovae
Kareem El-Badry, Klaus Werner, Ken J. Shen +16
The explosion of a white dwarf (WD) in a close binary can launch a surviving runaway star at velocities of . Such runaways provide a direct probe of…
The Future of Evolved Planetary Systems
Roberto Raddi, Anna F. Pala, Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas +19
Understanding the formation, evolution, and chemical diversity of exoplanets are now central areas of astrophysics research. White dwarfs provide a uniquely sensitive laboratory fo…
ESO Expanding Horizons White Paper: Electromagnetic characterisation of millihertz gravitational-wave sources in the Milky Way
James Munday, Valeriya Korol, Camilla Danielski +8
The millihertz band is densely populated by continuous gravitational-wave signals from Galactic compact binaries, dominated by double white dwarfs (DWDs; binaries of two white dwar…
Transiting Planetary Debris near the Roche Limit of a White Dwarf on a 4.97hr Orbit -- and its Vanishing
Joseph A. Guidry, Zachary P. Vanderbosch, J. J. Hermes +9
We present the discovery of deep, irregular, periodic transits towards the white dwarf ZTFJ19444557 using follow-up time-series photometry and spectroscopy from Palomar, Kec…
A half-ring of ionized circumstellar material trapped in the magnetosphere of a white dwarf merger remnant
Andrei A. Cristea, Ilaria Caiazzo, Tim Cunningham +31
Many white dwarfs are observed in compact double white dwarf binaries and, through the emission of gravitational waves, a large fraction are destined to merge. The merger remnants…
Comparing population synthesis models of compact double white dwarfs to electromagnetic observations
Wouter G. J. van Zeist, Jan van Roestel, Gijs Nelemans +3
Context: Studies of the Galactic population of double white dwarfs (DWDs) that would be detectable in gravitational waves by LISA have found differences in the number of predicted…
