The Heating and Pulsations of V386 Serpentis after its 2019 Dwarf Nova Outburst

Paula Szkody, Patrick Godon, Boris T. Gaensicke +10

Following the pulsation spectrum of a white dwarf through the heating and cooling involved in a dwarf nova outburst cycle provides a unique view of the changes to convective drivin…

The pulsating white dwarf G117-B15A: still the most stable optical clock known

S. O. Kepler, D. E. Winget, Zachary P. Vanderbosch +14

The pulsating hydrogen atmosphere white dwarf star G 117-B15A has been observed since 1974. Its main pulsation period at 215.19738823(63) s, observed in optical light curves, varie…

WD1032+011, an inflated brown dwarf in an old eclipsing binary with a white dwarf

S. L. Casewell, C. Belardi, S. G. Parsons +11

We present the discovery of only the third brown dwarf known to eclipse a non-accreting white dwarf. Gaia parallax information and multi-colour photometry confirm that the white dw…

The McDonald Observatory search for pulsating sdA stars: asteroseismic support for multiple populations

Keaton J. Bell, Ingrid Pelisoli, S. O. Kepler +8

Context. The nature of the recently identified "sdA" spectroscopic class of star is not well understood. The thousands of known sdAs have H-dominated spectra, spectroscopic surface…

Two white dwarfs in ultrashort binaries with detached, eclipsing, likely substellar companions detected by K2

S. G. Parsons, J. J. Hermes, T. R. Marsh +19

Using data from the extended Kepler mission in K2 Campaign 10 we identify two eclipsing binaries containing white dwarfs with cool companions that have extremely short orbital peri…
