He white dwarfs with large H contamination: Convective mixing or accretion?
F. C. Wachlin, G. Vauclair, S. Vauclair
White dwarfs are compact objects with atmospheres containing mainly light elements, hydrogen or helium. Because of their surface high gravitational field, heavy elements diffuse do…
On the evolution of ultra-massive white dwarfs
María E. Camisassa, Leandro G. Althaus, Alejandro H. Córsico +6
Ultra-massive white dwarfs are powerful tools to study various physical processes in the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB), type Ia supernova explosions and the theory of crystallizati…
Pulsation properties of ultra-massive DA white dwarf stars with ONe cores
Francisco C. De Gerónimo, Alejandro H. Córsico, Leandro G. Althaus +2
Ultra-massive DA WD stars are expected to harbor ONe cores resulting from the progenitor evolution through the Super-AGB phase. As evolution proceeds during the WD cooling phase, a…
