Spectral evolution of hot hybrid white dwarfs: II. Photometry
Semih Filiz, Nicole Reindl, David Jones +4
We present a photometric analysis of 19 DA and 13 DAO white dwarfs (WDs) with effective temperatures exceeding 60 kK, building on the spectral analysis reported in the first paper…
How an overweight and rapidly rotating PG 1159 star in the Galactic halo challenges evolutionary models
Nina Mackensen, Nicole Reindl, Klaus Werner +2
PG 1159 stars are thought to be progenitors of the majority of H-deficient white dwarfs. Their unusual He-, C-, and O-dominated surface composition is typically believed to result…
Variability of Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae with the Zwicky Transient Facility. II. Long-Timescale Variables including Wide Binary and Late Thermal Pulse Candidates
Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, Nicole Reindl, Howard E. Bond +14
In this second paper on our variability survey of central stars of planetary nebulae (CSPNe) using ZTF, we report 11 long-timescale variables with variability timescales ranging fr…
Three new hot hydrogen-deficient pre-white dwarfs
Klaus Werner, Nicole Reindl, Max Pritzkuleit +1
We have detected three new hydrogen-deficient (H < 0.001 mass fraction) pre-white dwarfs (WDs) with helium-dominated atmospheres. The first object is a relatively cool PG1159 star…
