Doppler beaming factors for white dwarfs, main sequence stars, and giant stars Limb-darkening coefficients for 3D (DA and DB) white dwarf models

A. Claret, E. Cukanovaite, K. Burdge +3

We computed Doppler beaming factors for DA, DB, and DBA white dwarf models, as well as for main sequence and giant stars covering the transmission curves of the Sloan, UBVRI, HiPER…

white dwarfs within 40 pc I: spectroscopic observations of new candidates

P. -E. Tremblay, M. A. Hollands, N. P. Gentile Fusillo +30

We present a spectroscopic survey of 230 white dwarf candidates within 40 pc of the Sun from the William Herschel Telescope and Gran Telescopio Canarias. All candidates were select…

Gravity and limb-darkening coefficients for compact stars: DA, DB, and DBA eclipsing white dwarfs

A. Claret, E. Cukanovaite, K. Burdge +3

The main objective of the present work is to extend these investigations by computing the gravity and limb-darkening coefficients for white dwarf atmosphere models with hydrogen, h…

Orbital Decay in a 20 Minute Orbital Period Detached Binary with a Hydrogen Poor Low Mass White Dwarf

Kevin B Burdge, Jim Fuller, E. Sterl Phinney +14

We report the discovery of a detached double white dwarf binary with an orbital period of , PTF J053332.05+020911.6. The visible object in this binary, PT…

From Hydrogen to Helium: The Spectral Evolution of White Dwarfs as Evidence for Convective Mixing

Tim Cunningham, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Nicola Pietro Gentile Fusillo +2

We present a study of the hypothesis that white dwarfs undergo a spectral change from hydrogen- to helium-dominated atmospheres using a volume-limited photometric sample drawn from…

Calibration of the mixing length theory for structures of helium-dominated atmosphere white dwarfs

Cukanovaite E., P. -E. Tremblay, B. Freytag +5

We perform a calibration of the mixing length parameter at the bottom boundary of the convection zone for helium-dominated atmospheres of white dwarfs. This calibration is based on…
