1000 cataclysmic variables identified from DESI spectroscopy
K. Inight, B. T. Gänsicke, A. Aungwerojwit +41
Most cataclysmic variables (CVs) are discovered when they have an outburst generating an inherent selection bias against CVs that rarely, or never, outburst. CVs discovered by virt…
First planetesimals from DESI DR1: 12 highly metal-rich white dwarfs
Paula Izquierdo, Andrew Swan, Boris T. Gänsicke +43
The paper analyzes 12 highly metal‑rich white dwarfs from DESI DR1, measuring their photospheric metal abundances to infer the bulk composition of the accreted planetary debris, wh…
I Can Do It With A Broken Planetesimal: Characterising the planetary debris in heavily polluted cool white dwarfs
Anna-Maria Cutolo, Boris T. Gänsicke, Boris T. Gänsicke +8
The paper analyzes four cool, metal‑polluted hydrogen‑atmosphere white dwarfs using X‑shooter spectra to determine their atmospheric parameters and the composition of accreted plan…
Spectroscopic Monitoring of Metal Lines in Polluted White Dwarfs
Laura K. Rogers, Michael M. Shara, Amy Bonsor +12
The disruption and accretion of planetary material onto white dwarfs is expected to be inherently dynamic and stochastic, potentially driving variability in the accretion rate and…
White dwarf planetary systems in the ultraviolet
Jamie Williams, Amy Bonsor, Boris Gänsicke +9
Almost every known planet host will evolve into a white dwarf, and the surviving planetary material will continue to orbit this stellar remnant. Asteroids perturbed onto star-grazi…
From Hubble to HWO: Bridging the Frontier of White Dwarf Exoplanet Science
Laura K. Rogers, Siyi Xu, Martin Barstow +20
White dwarf stars, the endpoint of stellar evolution for 97% of stars in our Milky Way, offer a unique and powerful window into the bulk elemental composition of rocky exoplanetary…
