Constraining the magnetic field on white dwarf surfaces; Zeeman effects and fine structure constant variation
J. Hu, J. K. Webb, T. R. Ayres +12
White dwarf atmospheres are subjected to gravitational potentials around times larger than occur on Earth. They provide a unique environment in which to search for any possi…
Spectral analysis of the extremely hot DA white dwarf PG0948+534
K. Werner, T. Rauch, N. Reindl
There is a striking paucity of hydrogen-rich (DA) white dwarfs (WDs) relative to their hydrogen-deficient (non-DA) counterparts at the very hot end of the WD cooling sequence. The…
Unravelling the baffling mystery of the ultrahot wind phenomenon in white dwarfs
Nicole Reindl, M. Bainbridge, N. Przybilla +6
The presence of ultra-high excitation (UHE) absorption lines (e.g., O VIII) in the optical spectra of several of the hottest white dwarfs poses a decades-long mystery and is someth…
Revealing the True Nature of Hen 2-428
Nicole Reindl, Nicolle L. Finch, Veronika Schaffenroth +5
The nucleus of Hen 2-428 is a short orbital period (4.2 h) spectroscopic binary, whose status as potential supernovae type Ia progenitor has raised some controversy in the literatu…
Discovery of two bright DO-type white dwarfs
Nicole Reindl, Stephan Geier, Roy H. Østensen
We discovered two bright DO-type white dwarfs, GALEXJ053628.3+544854 (J0536+5448) and GALEX231128.0+292935(J2311+2929), which rank among the eight brightest DO-type white dwarfs kn…
