A new method to retrieve the star formation history from white dwarf luminosity functions -- an application to the Gaia catalogue of nearby stars
Marco C Lam, Nicholas Rowell, Hon Wah Yeung
With the state-of-the-art Gaia astrometry, the number of confirmed white dwarfs has reached a few hundred thousand. We have reached the era where small features in the white dwarf…
Two New Nova Shells associated with V4362 Sagittarii and DO Aquilae
E. J. Harvey, M. P. Redman, P. Boumis +8
A classical nova is an eruption on the surface of a white dwarf in an accreting binary system. The material ejected from the white dwarf surface generally forms an axisymmetric she…
First discovery of an ultra-cool white dwarf benchmark in common proper motion with an M dwarf
M. C. Lam, N. C. Hambly, N. Lodieu +5
Ultra-cool white dwarfs are among the oldest stellar remnants in the Universe. Their efficient gravitational settling and low effective temperatures are responsible for the smooth…
Cool White Dwarfs Selection with Pan-STARRS Proper Motions
M. C. Lam, N. C. Hambly
The use of Reduced Proper Motion in identifying isolated white dwarfs has long been used as a proxy for the absolute magnitude in a population with known kinematics. This, however,…
