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…
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…
