No Period Change in Two Long-Period AM CVn Binaries
Matthew J. Green, Thomas R. Marsh, Jan van Roestel +25
Ultracompact binary systems, consisting of two compact objects in an orbit , should exhibit measurable rates of orbital period change () due t…
Photometric masses for long period CVs: the case study of CSS131106
M. Das, S. P. Littlefair, S. G. Parsons +15
We present high-speed photometry of the eclipsing cataclysmic variable CSS131106 J052412+004148. We determine the system parameters by modelling the eclipse lightcurve using the ph…
Long-term eclipse time variations in white dwarf binaries
Amalie Yates, S. G. Parsons, A. J. Brown +15
The overwhelming majority of eclipsing white dwarf (WD) binary systems show quasi-periodic variations in eclipse timings on many year timescales. Currently, the mechanism behind th…
An eclipsing 8.56 minute orbital period mass-transferring binary
Emma T. Chickles, Joheen Chakraborty, Kevin B. Burdge +34
We report the discovery of ATLAS J101342.5-451656.8 (hereafter ATLAS J1013-4516), an 8.56 minute orbital period mass transferring AM Canum Venaticorum binary with mean Gaia magnitu…
Constraints on an optical counterpart for the long-period radio transient GPM J1839-10
Ingrid Pelisoli, A. J. Brown, N. Castro Segura +14
Long period radio transients (LPTs) are periodic radio sources showing pulsed emission on timescales from minutes to hours. The underlying sources behind this emission are currentl…
A Sibling of AR Scorpii: SDSS J230641.47244055.8 and the Observational Blueprint of White Dwarf Pulsars
N. Castro Segura, I. Pelisoli, B. T. Gänsicke +21
Radio pulsating white dwarf (WD) systems, known as WD pulsars, are non-accreting binary systems where the rapidly spinning WD interacts with a low-mass companion producing pulsed n…
A targeted search for binary white dwarf pulsars using Gaia and WISE
Ingrid Pelisoli, T. R. Marsh, G. Tovmassian +24
After its discovery in 2016, the white dwarf binary AR Scorpii (AR Sco) remained for several years the only white dwarf system to show pulsed radio emission associated with a fast-…
Two almost planetary mass survivors of common envelope evolution
S. G. Parsons, A. J. Brown, S. L. Casewell +19
White dwarfs are often found in close binaries with stellar or even substellar companions. It is generally thought that these compact binaries form via common envelope evolution, t…
A gravitational wave detectable candidate Type Ia supernova progenitor
Emma T. Chickles, Kevin B. Burdge, Joheen Chakraborty +37
Type Ia supernovae, critical for studying cosmic expansion, arise from thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs, but their precise progenitor pathways remain unclear. Growing evide…
Expanding the ultracompacts: gravitational wave-driven mass transfer in the shortest-period binaries with accretion disks
Joheen Chakraborty, Kevin B. Burdge, Saul A. Rappaport +35
We report the discovery of three ultracompact binary white dwarf systems hosting accretion disks, with orbital periods of 7.95, 8.68, and 13.15 minutes. This significantly augments…
Fast Prograde Coronal Flows in Solar Active Regions
Hugh S. Hudson, Sargam M. Mulay, Lyndsay Fletcher +6
We report the discovery and characterization of high-speed (>100 km/s) horizontal flows in solar active regions, making use of the Sun-as-a-star spectroscopy in the range 5-105 nm…
