White Dwarf Variability with gPhoton: Pulsators
Michael A. Tucker, Scott W. Fleming, Ingrid Pelisoli +10
We present results from a search for short time-scale white dwarf variability using \texttt{gPhoton}, a time-tagged database of \textit{GALEX} photon events and associated software…
Destroying Aliases from the Ground and Space: Super-Nyquist ZZ Cetis in K2 Long Cadence Data
Keaton J. Bell, J. J. Hermes, Z. Vanderbosch +5
With typical periods of order 10 minutes, the pulsation signatures of ZZ Ceti variables (pulsating hydrogen-atmosphere white dwarf stars) are severely undersampled by long-cadence…
White Dwarf Rotation as a Function of Mass and a Dichotomy of Mode Linewidths: Kepler Observations of 27 Pulsating DA White Dwarfs Through K2 Campaign 8
J. J. Hermes, B. T. Gaensicke, Steven D. Kawaler +15
We present photometry and spectroscopy for 27 pulsating hydrogen-atmosphere white dwarfs (DAVs, a.k.a. ZZ Ceti stars) observed by the Kepler space telescope up to K2 Campaign 8, an…
Science-Driven Optimization of the LSST Observing Strategy
LSST Science Collaboration, Phil Marshall, Timo Anguita +102
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope is designed to provide an unprecedented optical imaging dataset that will support investigations of our Solar System, Galaxy and Universe, acros…
A Gemini Snapshot Survey for Double Degenerates
Mukremin Kilic, Warren R. Brown, A. Gianninas +3
We present the results from a Gemini snapshot radial-velocity survey of 44 low-mass white dwarf candidates selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectroscopy. To find sub-hour…
Two white dwarfs in ultrashort binaries with detached, eclipsing, likely substellar companions detected by K2
S. G. Parsons, J. J. Hermes, T. R. Marsh +19
Using data from the extended Kepler mission in K2 Campaign 10 we identify two eclipsing binaries containing white dwarfs with cool companions that have extremely short orbital peri…
