A Systematic Gaia--ZTF Search for Short-Period Blue Compact-Binary Candidates

Jiamao Lin, Liangliang Ren, Yilong Li +7

We present a catalog of 147 short-period (10.34--106.46~min) blue compact-binary candidates, identified by combining Gaia DR3 astrometry and photometry with ZTF DR23 light curves v…

Binary Constraints on the Origin of Nitrogen-rich Field Stars

Liao Yang, Baitian Tang, José G. Fernández-Trincado +4

Recent JWST observations have revealed galaxies with unusually high N/O ratios, suggesting that nitrogen enrichment may be common in intense star-forming environments in the early…

Mass-Orbital Period Distribution of Massive White Dwarfs Formed Through Stable Mass Transfer

Rizhong Zheng, Hongwei Ge, Christopher A Tout +10

White dwarfs (WDs) in binaries can form through either the stable mass-transfer process or common envelope evolution (CEE). Compared to CEE, the stable mass-transfer process can le…

Searching for White Dwarf Candidates Formed Through Binary evolution in Star Clusters

Huahui Yan, Li Wang, David R. Miller +11

White dwarfs (WDs), the evolutionary endpoints of most stars, can form through both single-star and binary channels. While single-star evolutionary models enable reliable WD age es…

Fates of the sub-stellar objects (FOSSO) I. Fates of the known brown dwarfs in main-sequence--BD binaries

Zhangliang Chen, Hongming Jin, Hongwei Ge +4

Context. Understanding the survival and orbital evolution of brown dwarf (BD) companions during the post-main-sequence (MS) evolution of their host stars is increasingly important,…

A magnetic white dwarf formed through a binary merger within 35 million years

Huahui Yan, Jiamao Lin, Rizhong Zheng +15

White dwarfs (WDs) represent the final evolutionary stage of most stars, typically originating from progenitor stars with masses below approximately 8 to 10 …

Discovery and characterization of ZTF J0112+5827: An 80.9-minute polar with strong cyclotron features

Jiamao Lin, Liangliang Ren, Chengyuan Li +9

We report the discovery and characterization of ZTF J0112+5827, a new magnetic cataclysmic variable with an orbital period of 80.9 minutes. ROSAT observations revealed X-ray emissi…

A new code for low-resolution spectral identification of white dwarf binary candidates

Genghao Liu, Baitian Tang, Liangliang Ren +7

Close white dwarf binaries (CWDBs) are considered to be progenitors of several exotic astronomical phenomena (e.g., type Ia supernovae, cataclysmic variables). These violent events…

Multi-band reflectance and shadowing of RX J1604.3-2130 protoplanetary disk in scattered light

Huisheng Zhong, Bin B. Ren, Bo Ma +5

Context.Spatially-resoved cicrumstellar disk spectrum and composition can provide valuable insights into the bulk composition of forming planets, as well as the mineralogical signa…

A Systematic Search for Short-period Close White Dwarf Binary Candidates Based on Gaia EDR3 Catalog and Zwicky Transient Facility Data

Liangliang Ren, Chengyuan Li, Bo Ma +4

Galactic short-period close white dwarf binaries (CWDBs) are important objects for space-borne gravitational-wave (GW) detectors in the millihertz frequency bands. Due to the intri…
