A systematic search for outbursting AM CVn systems with the Zwicky Transient Facility

Jan van Roestel, Leah Creter, Thomas Kupfer +15

AM CVn systems are a rare type of accreting binary that consists of a white dwarf and a helium-rich, degenerate donor star. Using the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), we searched f…

Spectroscopic and Photometric Periods of Six Ultracompact Accreting Binaries

Matthew J. Green, Thomas R. Marsh, Philip J. Carter +19

Ultracompact accreting binary systems each consist of a stellar remnant accreting helium-enriched material from a compact donor star. Such binaries include two related sub-classes,…

A pulsating white dwarf in an eclipsing binary

Steven G. Parsons, Alexander J. Brown, Stuart P. Littlefair +8

White dwarfs are the burnt out cores of Sun-like stars and are the final fate of 97% of all stars in our Galaxy. The internal structure and composition of white dwarfs are hidden b…

Astro2020 Science White Paper: Understanding the evolution of close white dwarf binaries

Odette Toloza, Elme Breed, Domitilla De Martino +27

Interacting binaries containing white dwarfs can lead to a variety of outcomes that range from powerful thermonuclear explosions, which are important in the chemical evolution of g…

A search for optical bursts from the repeating fast radio burst FRB 121102

Liam K Hardy, Vik S Dhillon, Laura G Spitler +14

We present a search for optical bursts from the repeating fast radio burst FRB 121102 using simultaneous observations with the high-speed optical camera ULTRASPEC on the 2.4-m Thai…
