Stars stably accreting from substellar objects
Aaron Householder, Kaitlyn Shin, Kevin B. Burdge +11
Substellar objects such as brown dwarfs and planets are generally expected to remain detached from their main-sequence host stars unless orbital decay or stellar expansion brings t…
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…
Variability of Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae with the Zwicky Transient Facility. I. Methods, Short-Timescale Variables, Binary Candidates, and the Unusual Nucleus of WeSb 1
Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, S. R. Kulkarni, Albert K. H. Kong +16
Over the past several decades, time-series photometry of CSPNe has yielded significant results including, but not limited to, discoveries of nearly 100 binary systems, insights int…
A Link Between White Dwarf Pulsars and Polars: Multiwavelength Observations of the 9.36-Minute Period Variable Gaia22ayj
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry, Pasi Hakala +30
White dwarfs (WDs) are the most abundant compact objects, and recent surveys have suggested that over a third of WDs in accreting binaries host a strong (B 1 MG) magnetic…
