Thermal X-ray emission from massive, fast rotating, highly magnetized white dwarfs

D. L. Caceres, S. M. de Carvalho, J. G. Coelho +2

There is solid observational evidence on the existence of massive, $M\sim 1M_{\odot }$, highly magnetized white dwarfs (WDs) with surface magnetic fields up to $B\sim 10^9$ G. We sho…
