A highly magnetised and rapidly rotating white dwarf as small as the Moon

Ilaria Caiazzo, Kevin B. Burdge, James Fuller +15

White dwarfs represent the last stage of evolution of stars with mass less than about eight times that of the Sun and, like other stars, are often found in binaries. If the orbital…
