White dwarf planetary systems in the ultraviolet

Jamie Williams, Amy Bonsor, Boris Gänsicke +9

Almost every known planet host will evolve into a white dwarf, and the surviving planetary material will continue to orbit this stellar remnant. Asteroids perturbed onto star-grazi…

Detection of a weak magnetic field in the Balmer emission line white dwarf WDJ1653-1001

Abbigail Elms, Stefano Bagnulo, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay +8

The small DAHe and DAe spectral classes comprise isolated, hydrogen-dominated atmosphere white dwarfs that exhibit variable photometric flux and Balmer line emission. These mysteri…

Classifying white dwarfs from multi-object spectroscopy surveys with machine learning

James Munday, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Ingrid Pelisoli +5

With tens to hundreds of spectra of white dwarfs being taken each night from multi-object spectroscopic surveys, automated spectral classification is essential as part of efficient…

The Galactic White Dwarf Population

Santiago Torres, Roberto Raddi, Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas +15

The ESA Gaia mission has revolutionized our understanding of the white dwarf population, delivering an unprecedented census of these nearby remnants and revealing previously unseen…

The DBL Survey II: towards a mass-period distribution of double white dwarf binaries

James Munday, Ingrid Pelisoli, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay +14

Double white dwarf binaries are an important remnant of binary evolution as they are possible type Ia supernova progenitors and strong sources of gravitational waves in the low-fre…

A super-Chandrasekhar mass type Ia supernova progenitor at 49 pc set to detonate in 23 Gyr

James Munday, Ruediger Pakmor, Ingrid Pelisoli +9

Double white dwarf binaries are a leading explanation to the origin of type Ia supernovae, but no system exceeding the Chandrasekhar mass limit (1.4 M) has been found that…
