Unveiling the period-bounce population of cataclysmic variables: Spectroscopic and time-domain follow-up of eROSITA-selected candidates
S. Hernández-DÃaz, B. Stelzer, A. Schwope +9
The paper presents spectroscopic and time‑domain follow‑up of eROSITA‑selected cataclysmic variable candidates, confirming 24 new systems and showing they are consistent with perio…
Evolution of a long-period Cataclysmic Variable from the viewpoint of the donor star: the case of SDSS J085210.48+783246.6
G. Tovmassian, D. Belloni, I. Mora Zamora +8
Cataclysmic variables were long considered to be close binaries consisting of a white dwarf and a Roche-lobe-filling, near-zero-age main-sequence (ZAMS) red or brown dwarf. Recent…
ZTF J021804.16+071152.93: a dead cataclysmic variable and potential solution to the missing period bouncers
S. G. Parsons, A. J. Brown, S. L. Casewell +22
It is predicted that half or more of all cataclysmic variables (CVs) should have evolved past the period minimum and now exist as so-called "period bouncers" where a white dwarf sh…
A modest change in magnetic braking at the fully convective boundary explains cataclysmic variable evolution
JoaquÃn A. Barraza-Jorquera, Matthias R. Schreiber, Stuart Littlefair +2
Context. For decades, reproducing the orbital period distribution of non-magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) seemed to require a drastic decrease, usually termed disruption, of an…
From Main Sequence Binary to Blast: MESA Modeling of the Double-Detonation Progenitor PTF1~J2238+7430
Mercedes S. Hernandez, Thomas Kupfer, Diogo Belloni +1
Hot subdwarf B (sdB) stars in close binaries with white dwarf (WD) companions are potential progenitors of double-detonation thermonuclear supernovae. The recently discovered syste…
Predicted incidence of Jupiter-like planets around white dwarfs
Alex Mauch-Soriano, Matthias R. Schreiber, Diego Correa +7
Only a handful of gas giant planets orbiting white dwarfs are known. It remains unclear whether this paucity reflects observational challenges or the consequences of stellar evolut…
