A systematic survey for hypervelocity runaways from thermonuclear supernovae
Kareem El-Badry, Klaus Werner, Ken J. Shen +16
The explosion of a white dwarf (WD) in a close binary can launch a surviving runaway star at velocities of . Such runaways provide a direct probe of…
White dwarf planetary systems in the ultraviolet
Jamie Williams, Amy Bonsor, Boris Gänsicke +9
Almost every known planet host will evolve into a white dwarf, and the surviving planetary material will continue to orbit this stellar remnant. Asteroids perturbed onto star-grazi…
From Hubble to HWO: Bridging the Frontier of White Dwarf Exoplanet Science
Laura K. Rogers, Siyi Xu, Martin Barstow +20
White dwarf stars, the endpoint of stellar evolution for 97% of stars in our Milky Way, offer a unique and powerful window into the bulk elemental composition of rocky exoplanetary…
WEAVE imaging spectroscopy of NGC 6720: an iron bar in the Ring
R. Wesson, J. E. Drew, M. J. Barlow +23
We present spatially resolved spectroscopic observations of the planetary nebula NGC 6720, the Ring Nebula, taken during the science verification phase of WEAVE, a new instrument m…
The final stages of binary evolution using multi-messenger studies
Thomas Kupfer, Simone Scaringi, Paul Groot +11
Ultracompact Galactic binaries with orbital periods below an hour are among the strongest persistent gravitational-wave (GW) sources in the mHz band and will constitute the dominan…
White Dwarf Binaries: Probes of Future Astrophysics
Anna F. Pala, Roberto Raddi, Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas +25
White dwarf binaries are fundamental astrophysical probes. They represent ideal laboratories to test the models of binary evolution, which also apply to the sources of gravitationa…
