An independent limit on the axion mass from the variable white dwarf star R548

Alejandro H. Córsico, Leandro G. Althaus, Alejandra D. Romero +5

Pulsating white dwarfs with hydrogen-rich atmospheres, also known as DAV stars, can be used as astrophysical laboratories to constrain the properties of fundamental particles like…

The seismic properties of low-mass He-core white dwarf stars

A. H. Córsico, A. D. Romero, L. G. Althaus +1

We present here a detailed pulsational study applied to low-mass He-core white dwarfs, based on full evolutionary models representative of these objects. The background stellar mod…

The rate of cooling of the pulsating white dwarf star G117B15A: a new asteroseismological inference of the axion mass

Alejandro H. Córsico, Leandro G. Althaus, Marcelo M. Miller Bertolami +4

We employ a state-of-the-art asteroseismological model of G117-B15A, the archetype of the H-rich atmosphere (DA) white dwarf pulsators (also known as DAV or ZZ Ceti variables), and…

A public database for white dwarf asteroseismology with fully evolutionary models: I. Chemical profiles and pulsation periods of ZZ Ceti (DAV) stars

Alejandra D. Romero, Alejandro H. Córsico, Leandro G. Althaus +1

We present a large bank of chemical profiles and pulsation periods suited for asteroseismological studies of ZZ Ceti (or DAV) variable stars. Our background equilibrium DA white dw…
