A New Sirius-like System at Only 21 Parsecs: An Elusive White Dwarf Companion to the Nearby K-dwarf HD 38230
Alexander Venner, Logan A. Pearce, Qier An +6
White dwarfs are among the rarest and faintest stars found in the solar neighbourhood and are therefore persistently challenging to detect. Whereas the \textit{Gaia} mission has va…
Serendipitous observation of a white dwarf companion to a JWST/MIRI coronagraphic calibrator
Alexander Venner, Mary Anne Limbach, Mathilde Mâlin +3
We present the unplanned detection of a white dwarf companion to the star HD 218261 in mid-infrared (10-16 m) observations with JWST/MIRI. This star was observed as a calibrator…
A catalog of binary stars from phase modulation in the first four years of TESS Mission photometry
Shishir Dholakia, Simon J. Murphy, Chelsea X. Huang +2
We present a catalog of binary companions to Scuti stars, detected through phase modulations of their pulsations in TESS data. Pulsation timing has provided orbits for hundreds…
A Crystallizing White Dwarf in a Sirius-Like Quadruple System
Alexander Venner, Simon Blouin, Antoine Bédard +1
The observational signature of core crystallization of white dwarfs has recently been discovered. However, the magnitude of the crystallization-powered cooling delay required to ma…
Dynamical Masses and Ages of Sirius-like Systems
Hengyue Zhang, Timothy D. Brandt, Rocio Kiman +4
We measure precise orbits and dynamical masses and derive age constraints for six confirmed and one candidate Sirius-like systems, including the Hyades member HD 27483. Our orbital…
