Whole Earth Telescope observations of BPM 37093: a seismological test of crystallization theory in white dwarfs
A. Kanaan, A. Nitta, D. E. Winget +3
BPM 37093 is the only hydrogen-atmosphere white dwarf currently known which has sufficient mass (~ 1.1 M_sun) to theoretically crystallize while still inside the ZZ Ceti instabilit…
The White Dwarf Luminosity Function: The Shape of Things to Come
T. von Hippel, M. Kilic, J. Munn +10
We describe a new survey for cool white dwarfs that supplements Sloan Digital Sky Survey photometry with USNO proper motions and follow-up spectroscopy. To date we have discovered…
The Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
K. Abazajian et al.
This paper describes the Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). This release, containing data taken up through June 2003, includes imaging data in five bands ov…
SDSS Data Management and Photometric Quality Assessment
Z. Ivezic, R. H. Lupton, D. Schlegel +24
We summarize the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data acquisition and processing steps, and describe runQA, a pipeline designed for automated data quality assessment. In particular, we sh…
Mass-producing spectra: The SDSS spectrographic system
Peter R. Newman, Dan C. Long, Stephanie A. Snedden +8
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is the largest redshift survey conducted to date, and the principal survey observations have all been conducted on the dedicated SDSS 2.5m and 0.5m tel…
Discovery of New Ultracool White Dwarfs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Evalyn Gates, Geza Gyuk, Hugh C. Harris +14
We report the discovery of five very cool white dwarfs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Four are ultracool, exhibiting strong collision induced absorption (CIA) from molecul…
