Maximizing Survey Volume for Large-Area Multi-Epoch Surveys with Voronoi Tessellation
Marco C. Lam
The survey volume of a proper motion-limited sample is typically much smaller than a magnitude-limited sample. This is because of the noisy astrometric measurements from detectors…
White Dwarf Luminosity Functions from the Pan{\ndash}STARRS1 3π Survey
Marco C. Lam
White dwarfs are among the most common objects in the stellar halo; however, due to their low luminosity and low number density compared to the stars in the discs of the Milky Way,…
Get ready for Gaia: cool white dwarfs in common proper motion with Tycho stars
Nigel Hambly, Nick Rowell, Marco Lam
We discuss the Gaia Data Release 1 (September 2016) and preliminary work on maximising the benefit for cool white dwarf (WD) science in advance of the full parallax catalogue which…
Untangling the White Dwarf Luminosity Functions
Marco C. Lam
The inversion of the white dwarf luminosity function provides an independent way to prove the past star formation history of the Milky Way independent of any cosmological models. I…
