New orbital periods of high-inclination dwarf novae based on Gaia Alerts photometry

Catalina Sáez-Carvajal, Nikolaus Vogt, Mónica Zorotovic +8

The orbital period of a cataclysmic variable stands as a crucial parameter for investigating the structure and physics of these binary systems, as well as understanding their evolu…

The evolutionary history of GD1400, a white dwarf-brown dwarf binary

S. L. Casewell, M. R. Burleigh, R. Napiwotzki +6

GD1400AB was one of the first known white dwarfbrown dwarf binaries, and is the only one of these systems where the white dwarf is a ZZ Ceti pulsator. Here we present both radia…

The white dwarf binary pathways survey -- X. Gaia orbits for known UV excess binaries

J. A. Garbutt, S. G. Parsons, O. Toloza +9

White dwarfs with a F, G or K type companion represent the last common ancestor for a plethora of exotic systems throughout the galaxy, though to this point very few of them have b…

The double low-mass white dwarf eclipsing binary system J2102-4145 and its possible evolution

Larissa Antunes Amaral, James Munday, Maja Vučković +7

Approximately 150 low-mass white dwarfs, with masses below 0.4Msun, have been discovered. The majority of these low-mass WDs are observed in binary systems as they cannot be formed…

Formation of long-period post-common-envelope binaries II. Explaining the self-lensing binary KOI 3278

Diogo Belloni, Matthias R. Schreiber, Monica Zorotovic

The vast majority of close binaries containing a compact object form through common-envelope (CE) evolution. Despite this importance, we struggle to even understand the energy budg…

Formation of long-period post-common-envelope binaries I. No extra energy is needed to explain oxygen-neon white dwarfs paired with AFGK-type main-sequence stars

Diogo Belloni, Monica Zorotovic, Matthias R. Schreiber +3

In this first in a series of papers related to long-period post-common-envelope (CE) binaries, we investigated whether extra energy is required or not to explain the currently know…
