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…
A Faint Progenitor System for the Faint Supernova 2024vjm
Erez A. Zimmerman, Avishay Gal-Yam, Paul J. Groot +68
Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are well known for their role as standardizable cosmological candles. Their uniformity is credited to their single origin as thermonuclear explosions of…
An eclipsing 8.56 minute orbital period mass-transferring binary
Emma T. Chickles, Joheen Chakraborty, Kevin B. Burdge +34
We report the discovery of ATLAS J101342.5-451656.8 (hereafter ATLAS J1013-4516), an 8.56 minute orbital period mass transferring AM Canum Venaticorum binary with mean Gaia magnitu…
Nova Explosions in 2040
Alessandro Ederoclite, Domitilla De Martino, Paul Groot +7
Novae are thermonuclear explosions on the surface of accreting white dwarfs and are key laboratories for studying explosive nucleosynthesis, particle acceleration, shock physics, a…
The Future of Evolved Planetary Systems
Roberto Raddi, Anna F. Pala, Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas +19
Understanding the formation, evolution, and chemical diversity of exoplanets are now central areas of astrophysics research. White dwarfs provide a uniquely sensitive laboratory fo…
How Mass Flows Through Accretion Discs: A Spectral-Timing Vision for the 2040s
Simone Scaringi, Domitilla de Martino, Anna F. Pala +17
Understanding how mass and angular momentum flow through accretion discs remains a fundamental unsolved problem in astrophysics. Accreting white dwarfs offer an ideal laboratory fo…
