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…
ASAS J071404+7004.3 -- a close, bright nova-like cataclysmic variable with gusty winds
keith Inight, Boris Gaensicke, Dominic Blondel +11
Despite being bright () and nearby ( pc) ASAS J071404+7004.3 has only recently been identified as a nova-like cataclysmic variable. We present time-resolved optical sp…
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…
white dwarfs within 40 pc II: the volume-limited northern hemisphere sample
Jack McCleery, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Nicola Pietro Gentile Fusillo +6
We present an overview of the sample of northern hemisphere white dwarfs within 40 pc of the Sun detected from Data Release 2 (DR2). We find that 521 sources are spectroscop…
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…
An absolute sodium abundance for a cloud-free 'hot Saturn' exoplanet
Nikolay Nikolov, David K. Sing, Jonathan J. Fortney +20
Broad absorption signatures from alkali metals, such as the sodium (Na I) and potassium (K I) resonance doublets, have long been predicted in the optical atmospheric spectra of clo…
