The White Dwarf Initial-Final Mass Relation from Open Clusters in Gaia DR3
David R. Miller, Ilaria Caiazzo, Jeremy Heyl +6
The initial-final mass relation (IFMR) links a star's birth mass to the mass of its white dwarf (WD) remnant, providing key constraints on stellar evolution. Open clusters offer th…
Circumstellar interaction in the extreme white dwarf merger remnant ZTF\,J1901+1458: A new class of white dwarf merger remnants with X-ray emission
Aayush Desai, Ilaria Caiazzo, Stephane Vennes +31
Double degenerate white dwarf (WD) mergers can exhibit extreme magnetic fields exceeding G and rapid rotation, but their spectral-energy distributions and high-energy emis…
Optical Spectroscopy of the Most Compact Accreting Binary Harboring a Magnetic White Dwarf and a Hydrogen-rich Donor
Ilkham Galiullin, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry +4
Accreting white dwarfs in close binary systems, commonly known as cataclysmic variables (CVs), with orbital periods below the canonical period minimum ( 80 minutes) are ra…
Transiting Planetary Debris near the Roche Limit of a White Dwarf on a 4.97hr Orbit -- and its Vanishing
Joseph A. Guidry, Zachary P. Vanderbosch, J. J. Hermes +9
We present the discovery of deep, irregular, periodic transits towards the white dwarf ZTFJ19444557 using follow-up time-series photometry and spectroscopy from Palomar, Kec…
A half-ring of ionized circumstellar material trapped in the magnetosphere of a white dwarf merger remnant
Andrei A. Cristea, Ilaria Caiazzo, Tim Cunningham +31
Many white dwarfs are observed in compact double white dwarf binaries and, through the emission of gravitational waves, a large fraction are destined to merge. The merger remnants…
Eclipsing white dwarf from the Zwicky Transient Facility: II. Seven eclipsing double white dwarfs
J. van Roestel, K. Burdge, I. Caiazzo +15
In a systematic search for eclipsing white dwarfs using Zwicky transient facility (ZTF) data, we found seven eclipsing double white dwarfs with orbital periods ranging from 45 minu…
