White Dwarfs in Wide Binary Systems as Reliable Age Calibrators
Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas, Roberto Raddi, Anna F. Pala +13
Deriving precise stellar ages is a challenging task. Consequently, age-dependent relations - such as the age-metallicity and age-velocity dispersion relations of the Milky Way, or…
Circumstellar interaction in the extreme white dwarf merger remnant ZTF\,J1901+1458: A new class of white dwarf merger remnants with X-ray emission
Aayush Desai, Ilaria Caiazzo, Stephane Vennes +31
Double degenerate white dwarf (WD) mergers can exhibit extreme magnetic fields exceeding G and rapid rotation, but their spectral-energy distributions and high-energy emis…
Double White Dwarf Binaries in SDSS-V DR19 : A catalog of DA white dwarf binaries and constraints on the binary population
Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Vedant Chandra, Nadia L. Zakamska +17
The fifth-generation Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) includes the first large-scale spectroscopic survey of white dwarfs (WDs) in the era of Gaia parallaxes. SDSS-V collects mult…
Resolution-Corrected White Dwarf Gravitational Redshifts Validate SDSS-V Wavelength Calibration and Enable Accurate Mass-Radius Tests
Stefan M. Arseneau, J. J. Hermes, Nadia L. Zakamska +7
Leveraging the large sample size of low-resolution spectroscopic surveys to constrain white dwarf stellar structure requires an accurate understanding of the shapes of hydrogen abs…
A Large Catalog of DA White Dwarf Characteristics Using SDSS and Gaia Observations
Nicole R. Crumpler, Vedant Chandra, Nadia L. Zakamska +12
We present a catalog of 8545 and 19,257 unique DA white dwarfs observed in SDSS Data Release 19 and previous SDSS data releases, respectively. This is the largest catalog of both s…
Double White Dwarf Binaries in SDSS-V DR19 : The discovery of a rare DA+DQ white dwarf binary with 31 hour orbital period
Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Vedant Chandra, Boris T. Gansicke +13
Binaries of two white dwarfs (WDs) are an important class of astrophysical objects that are theorized to lead to Type Ia supernovae and are also used to gain insight into complex p…
