The Future of Evolved Planetary Systems
Roberto Raddi, Anna F. Pala, Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas +19
Understanding the formation, evolution, and chemical diversity of exoplanets are now central areas of astrophysics research. White dwarfs provide a uniquely sensitive laboratory fo…
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…
Re-evaluating Lyman wing opacities and the low mass-problem in cool white dwarfs
Snehalata Sahu, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Detlev Koester +4
Gaia observations have reignited interest in the optical and ultraviolet (UV) opacity problems of cool white dwarfs ( K), which were thought to be resolved n…
Discovery of an icy and nitrogen-rich extrasolar planetesimal
Snehalata Sahu, Boris T. Gänsicke, Jamie T. Williams +7
White dwarfs accreting planetary debris provide detailed insight into the bulk composition of rocky exo-planetesimals. However, only one Kuiper-Belt analogue has been identified in…
Precise Parameters for Two LISA Sources
Manuel Barrientos, Mukremin Kilic, Warren R. Brown +5
We present precise parameters for two compact double white dwarf binaries, SDSS J232230.20+050942.0 (J2322+0509) and SDSS J063449.92+380352.2 (J0634+3803), with orbital periods of…
A hot white dwarf merger remnant revealed by an ultraviolet detection of carbon
Snehalata Sahu, Antoine Bédard, Boris T. Gänsicke +7
Atmospheric carbon has been detected in the optical spectra of six hydrogen-rich ultra-massive white dwarfs, revealing large carbon abundances (log C/H > 0.5) attributable to th…
