A deeper understanding of white dwarf interiors
Travis S. Metcalfe
A detailed record of the physical processes that operate during post-main-sequence evolution is contained in the internal chemical structure of white dwarfs. Global pulsations allo…
The Rise and Citation Impact of astro-ph in Major Journals
Travis S. Metcalfe
The rise in the use of the arXiv preprint server (astro-ph) over the past decade has led to a major shift in the way astronomical research is disseminated. Schwarz & Kennicutt (200…
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 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…
Asteroseismology of Sun-like Stars - A Proposal
T. S. Metcalfe, T. M. Brown, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard
In the past decade, helioseismology has revolutionized our understanding of the interior structure of the Sun. In the next decade, asteroseismology will place this knowledge into c…
Seismic Inference using Genetic Algorithms
Travis S. Metcalfe
A flood of reliable seismic data will soon arrive. The migration to larger telescopes on the ground may free up 4-m class instruments for multi-site campaigns, and several forthcom…
