The Magnetorotational Instability Prefers Three Dimensions

Jeffrey S. Oishi, Geoffrey M. Vasil, Morgan Baxter +4

The magnetorotational instability (MRI) occurs when a weak magnetic field destabilises a rotating, electrically conducting fluid with inwardly increasing angular velocity. The MRI…

Interpretation and diversity of exoplanetary material orbiting white dwarfs

Andrew Swan, Jay Farihi, Detlev Koester +5

Nine metal-polluted white dwarfs are observed with medium-resolution optical spectroscopy,where photospheric abundances are determined and interpreted through comparison against so…

Astro 2020 Science White Paper: Evolved Planetary Systems around White Dwarfs

Boris Gaensicke, Martin Barstow, Amy Bonsor +25

Practically all known planet hosts will evolve into white dwarfs, and large parts of their planetary systems will survive this transition - the same is true for the solar system be…

Most white dwarfs with detectable dust discs show infrared variability

Andrew Swan, Jay Farihi, Thomas G. Wilson

Archival data from the WISE satellite reveals infrared flux variations of tens of per cent around numerous dusty white dwarfs. Data spanning more than seven years reveal more than…
