Comparison of methods used to derive the Galactic star formation history from white dwarf samples

Emily K. Roberts, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Mairi W. O'Brien +4

We compare three methods of deriving the local Galactic star formation history, using as a benchmark the Gaia-defined 40 pc white dwarf sample, currently the largest volume complet…

The 40 pc sample of white dwarfs from Gaia

Mairi W. O'Brien, P. -E. Tremblay, B. L. Klein +14

We present a comprehensive overview of a volume-complete sample of white dwarfs located within 40 pc of the Sun, a significant proportion of which were detected in Gaia Data Releas…

white dwarfs within 40 pc III: spectroscopic observations of new candidates in the southern hemisphere

Mairi W. O'Brien, P. -E. Tremblay, N. P. Gentile Fusillo +31

We present a spectroscopic survey of 248 white dwarf candidates within 40 pc of the Sun; of these 244 are in the southern hemisphere. Observations were performed mostly with the Ve…

Local stellar formation history from the 40 pc white dwarf sample

E. Cukanovaite, P. -E. Tremblay, S. Toonen +4

We derive the local stellar formation history from the Gaia-defined 40 pc white dwarf sample. This is currently the largest volume-complete sample of white dwarfs for which spectro…

A catalogue of white dwarfs in Gaia EDR3

N. P. Gentile Fusillo, P. -E. Tremblay, E. Cukanovaite +7

We present a catalogue of white dwarf candidates selected from Gaia early data release three (EDR3). We applied several selection criteria in absolute magnitude, colour, and Gaia q…

Horizontal spreading of planetary debris accreted by white dwarfs

Tim Cunningham, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Evan B. Bauer +8

White dwarfs with metal-polluted atmospheres have been studied widely in the context of the accretion of rocky debris from evolved planetary systems. One open question is the geome…
