Astrometric and photometric verification of faint blue white dwarfs in the Gaia catalogue of nearby stars

Ralf-Dieter Scholz

The Gaia catalogue of nearby stars (GCNS) divided all objects with parallaxes 10mas into GCNS-selected and GCNS-rejected 100pc samples. Below the white dwarf (WD) sequence in th…

\textit{Gaia} EDR3 confirms a red dwarf companion of the nearby F1 star HD 105452 and reveals a new brown dwarf companion of the M4.5 dwarf SCR J1214-2345

Ralf-Dieter Scholz

There are 88 stars which lack colours, but have measured parallaxes in \textit{Gaia} EDR3 that place them within 20\,pc from the sun. Among them we found two new common parallax an…

New ultracool dwarf neighbours within 20pc from Gaia DR2

Ralf-Dieter Scholz

The Gaia data release 2 (DR2) contains 6000 objects with parallaxes mas placing them within 20pc from the Sun. Since the expected numbers extrapolating…
