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…
The Morphology of Asteroidal Dust Around White Dwarf Stars: Optical and Near-infrared Pulsations in G29-38
T. von Hippel, J. Farihi, J. L. Provencal +20
More than 36 years have passed since the discovery of the infrared excess from circumstellar dust orbiting the white dwarf G29-38, which at 17.5 pc it is the nearest and brightest…
Goodbye to Chi-by-Eye: A Bayesian Analysis of Photometric Binaries in Six Open Clusters
Anna C. Childs, Aaron M. Geller, Ted von Hippel +2
We present a robust methodology for identifying photometric binaries in star clusters. Using Gaia DR3, Pan-STARRS and 2MASS data, we self-consistently define the cluster parameters…
Investigating Mass Segregation of the Binary Stars in the Open Cluster NGC 6819
Claire Zwicker, Aaron M. Geller, Anna C. Childs +2
We search for mass segregation in the intermediate-aged open cluster NGC 6819 within a carefully identified sample of probable cluster members. Using photometry from the Gaia, 2MAS…
Tracing the Origins of Mass Segregation in M35: Evidence for Primordially Segregated Binaries
Erin Motherway, Aaron M. Geller, Anna C. Childs +2
M35 is a young open cluster and home to an extensive binary population. Using Gaia DR3, Pan-STARRS, and 2MASS photometry with the Bayesian statistical software, BASE-9, we derive p…
Two substellar survivor candidates; one found and one missing
N. Walters, J. Farihi, T. R. Marsh +4
This study presents observations of two possible substellar survivors of post-main sequence engulfment, currently orbiting white dwarf stars. Infrared and optical spectroscopy of G…
