On the Formation of Double White Dwarfs through Stable Mass Transfer and a Common Envelope
T. E. Woods, N. Ivanova, M. van der Sluys +1
Although several dozen double white dwarfs (DWDs) have been observed, for many the exact nature of the evolutionary channel(s) by which they form remains uncertain. The canonical e…

The Formation of Low-Mass Double White Dwarfs through an Initial Phase of Stable Non-Conservative Mass Transfer
T. E. Woods, N. Ivanova, M. van der Sluys +1
Although many double white dwarfs (DWDs) have been observed, the evolutionary channel by which they are formed from low-mass/long-period red-giant-main-sequence (RG-MS) binaries re…
