The pulsation modes of the pre-white dwarf PG 1159-035
J. E. S. Costa, S. O. Kepler, D. E. Winget +74
PG 1159-035, a pre-white dwarf with T_eff=140,000 K, is the prototype of both two classes: the PG1159 spectroscopic class and the DOV pulsating class. Previous studies of PG 1159-0…
Mean ZZ Ceti pulsation period gauges stellar temperature
Anjum S. Mukadam, M. H. Montgomery, A. Kim +3
The mean pulsation period of ZZ Ceti stars increases with decreasing effective temperature as we traverse from the blue to the red edge of the instability strip. This well-establis…
Driving in ZZ Ceti stars - Problem solved?
A. Kim, D. E. Winget, M. H. Montgomery +1
There is a fairly tight correlation between the pulsation periods and effective temperatures of ZZ Ceti stars (cooler stars have longer periods). This seems to fit the theoretical…
White Dwarf Light Curves: Constraining Convection and Mode Identification Using Non-sinusoidal Light Curves
M. H. Montgomery
In this paper we show how the formalism of Wu & Goldreich developed for weakly nonlinear white dwarf pulsations can be extended to the fully nonlinear case. Due to the computationa…
The Crystal Method: Asteroseismology of BPM 37093
T. S. Metcalfe, M. H. Montgomery, A. Kanaan
More than 40 years have passed since Ed Salpeter and others predicted that the carbon/oxygen cores of the coolest white dwarf stars in our Galaxy will theoretically crystallize. Th…
