Simultaneous emission from dust and gas in the planetary debris orbiting a white dwarf

Laura K. Rogers, Christopher J. Manser, Amy Bonsor +11

There is increasing evidence for the presence and variability of circumstellar dust and gas around white dwarfs that are polluted with exoplanetary material, although the origin of…

The frequency of transiting planetary systems around polluted white dwarfs

Akshay Robert, Jay Farihi, Vincent Van Eylen +6

This paper investigates the frequency of transiting planetary systems around metal-polluted white dwarfs using high-cadence photometry from ULTRACAM and ULTRASPEC on the ground, an…

Long-term variability in debris transiting white dwarfs

Amornrat Aungwerojwit, Boris T. Gaensicke, Vikram S. Dhillon +7

Combining archival photometric observations from multiple large-area surveys spanning the past 17 years, we detect long-term variability in the light curves of ZTFJ032833.52-121945…

The frequency of metal-enrichment of cool helium-atmosphere white dwarfs using the DESI Early Data Release

Christopher J. Manser, Boris T. Gänsicke, Paula Izquierdo +35

There is overwhelming evidence that white dwarfs host planetary systems; revealed by the presence, disruption, and accretion of planetary bodies. A lower limit on the frequency of…

The DESI Early Data Release White Dwarf Catalogue

Christopher J. Manser, Paula Izquierdo, Boris T. Gänsicke +51

The Early Data Release (EDR) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) comprises spectroscopy obtained from 2020 December 14 to 2021 June 10. White dwarfs were targeted by…

The Morphology of Asteroidal Dust Around White Dwarf Stars: Optical and Near-infrared Pulsations in G29-38

T. von Hippel, J. Farihi, J. L. Provencal +20

More than 36 years have passed since the discovery of the infrared excess from circumstellar dust orbiting the white dwarf G29-38, which at 17.5 pc it is the nearest and brightest…
