Planetary Accretion Is Less Frequent in Wide Binaries: Evidence from Metal-Enriched White Dwarfs in DESI DR1

Siyi Xu, Laura. K. Rogers, Joan Najita +32

Binary stars are common in the Galaxy, and understanding how stellar binarity influences the formation and evolution of planetary systems is an active area of research. In this stu…

The DESI Data Release 1 white dwarf catalogue

Andrew Swan, Boris T. Gänsicke, Paula Izquierdo +49

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument is conducting a redshift survey, mapping the universe in three dimensions to measure the history of cosmic expansion. As well as extragalac…

1000 cataclysmic variables identified from DESI spectroscopy

K. Inight, B. T. Gänsicke, A. Aungwerojwit +41

Most cataclysmic variables (CVs) are discovered when they have an outburst generating an inherent selection bias against CVs that rarely, or never, outburst. CVs discovered by virt…

First planetesimals from DESI DR1: 12 highly metal-rich white dwarfs

Paula Izquierdo, Andrew Swan, Boris T. Gänsicke +43

Metal-enriched white dwarfs provide a unique insight into the composition of exoplanet interiors. These stars accrete the debris of disrupted planetary bodies, and hence, measuring…

I Can Do It With A Broken Planetesimal: Characterising the planetary debris in heavily polluted cool white dwarfs

Anna-Maria Cutolo, Boris T. Gänsicke, Andrew Swan +7

We present the analysis of four cool and strongly metal-polluted H-atmosphere white dwarfs observed with X-shooter. We compared their atmospheric parameters obtained from spectrosc…
