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…
The ^12C(alpha,gamma)^16O Nuclear Reaction Rate from Asteroseismology of the DBV White Dwarf CBS 114
T. S. Metcalfe, G. Handler
We have identified seven independent pulsation modes in the helium-atmosphere variable (DBV) white dwarf star CBS 114, based on 65 hours of time-resolved CCD photometry from the 0.…
WhiteDwarf.org - Establishing a permanent endowment for the Whole Earth Telescope
Travis S. Metcalfe
White Dwarf Research Corporation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to scientific research and public education on topics relevant to white dwarf stars. It was founde…
The Consequences of assuming m=0 for Global Model-fitting
Travis S. Metcalfe
A recent re-analysis of Whole Earth Telescope observations of GD 358 obtained in 1990 suggests that asteroseismology of additional DBV white dwarfs can lead to independent constrai…
White Dwarf Seismology and the ^{12}C(alpha,gamma)^{16}O Rate
Travis S. Metcalfe
Recent determinations of the internal composition and structure of two helium-atmosphere variable white dwarf stars, GD 358 and CBS 114, have led to conflicting implied rates for t…
