Testing Fundamental Particle Physics with the Galactic White Dwarf Luminosity Function
Marcelo M. Miller Bertolami, Brenda E. Melendez, Leandro G. Althaus +1
Recent determinations of the white dwarf luminosity function (WDLF) from very large surveys have extended our knowledge of the WDLF to very high luminosities. It has been shown tha…
Revisiting the axion bounds from the Galactic white dwarf luminosity function
Marcelo M. Miller Bertolami, Brenda E. Melendez, Leandro G. Althaus +1
It has been shown that the shape of the luminosity function of white dwarfs (WDLF) is a powerful tool to check for the possible existence of DFSZ-axions, a proposed but not yet det…
Revisiting the Impact of Axions in the Cooling of White Dwarfs
Brenda Melendez, Marcelo Miller Bertolami, Leandro Althaus
It has been shown that the shape of the luminosity function of white dwarfs can be a powerful tool to check for the possible existence of DFSZ-axions. In particular, Isern et al. (…
