Planetary atmospheric escape and disk formation around WDJ0914+1914
C. Villarreal D'Angelo, M. P. Ronco, M. R. Schreiber +3
The spectrum of the white dwarf WD J091405.30+191412.25 displays the absorption and double-peaked emission lines of the volatiles hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur. This unique characte…
First planetesimals from DESI DR1: 12 highly metal-rich white dwarfs
Paula Izquierdo, Andrew Swan, Boris T. Gänsicke +43
The paper analyzes 12 highly metal‑rich white dwarfs from DESI DR1, measuring their photospheric metal abundances to infer the bulk composition of the accreted planetary debris, wh…
Accretion Rate Changes Detected in a Polluted White Dwarf
Jay Farihi, Hiba Tu Noor, Carl Melis +6
This letter reports statistically significant changes in the equivalent widths of MgII and CaII lines in the dusty and polluted white dwarf WD 0106-328, based on six epochs of spec…
The WEAVE-TwiLight-Survey: Expanding WEAVE's Reach to Bright and Low-Surface-Density Targets with a Novel Observing Mode
Thomas Hajnik, Nicholas A. Walton, Giuseppe D'Ago +28
Current-day multi-object spectroscopic surveys are often limited in their ability to observe bright stars due to their low surface densities, resulting in increased observational o…
Re-evaluating Lyman wing opacities and the low mass-problem in cool white dwarfs
Snehalata Sahu, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Detlev Koester +4
Gaia observations have reignited interest in the optical and ultraviolet (UV) opacity problems of cool white dwarfs ( K), which were thought to be resolved n…
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…
