The pulsation modes of the pre-white dwarf PG 1159-035
J. E. S. Costa, S. O. Kepler, D. E. Winget +74
PG 1159-035, a pre-white dwarf with T_eff=140,000 K, is the prototype of both two classes: the PG1159 spectroscopic class and the DOV pulsating class. Previous studies of PG 1159-0…
Whole Earth Telescope observations of BPM 37093: a seismological test of crystallization theory in white dwarfs
A. Kanaan, A. Nitta, D. E. Winget +3
BPM 37093 is the only hydrogen-atmosphere white dwarf currently known which has sufficient mass (~ 1.1 M_sun) to theoretically crystallize while still inside the ZZ Ceti instabilit…
Observations of the pulsating subdwarf B star Feige 48: Constraints on evolution and companions
M. D. Reed, S. D. Kawaler
Since pulsating subdwarf B (sdBV or EC14026) stars were first discovered (Kilkenny et al, 1997), observational efforts have tried to realize their potential for constraining the in…
The Everchanging Pulsating White Dwarf GD358
S. O. Kepler, R. E. Nather, D. E. Winget +43
We report 323 hours of nearly uninterrupted time series photometric observations of the DBV star GD 358 acquired with the Whole Earth Telescope (WET) during May 23rd to June 8th, 2…
Model Photospheres with Accelerated Lambda Iteration
K. Werner, J. L. Deetjen, S. Dreizler +3
We address the classical stellar-atmosphere problem and describe our method of numerical solution in detail. The problem consists of the solution of the radiation transfer equation…
Metal abundances in PG1159 stars from Chandra and FUSE spectroscopy
K. Werner, J. L. Deetjen, S. Dreizler +3
We investigate FUSE spectra of three PG1159 stars and do not find any evidence for iron lines. From a comparison with NLTE models we conclude a deficiency of 1-1.5 dex. We speculat…
