A 5.3-minute-period pulsing white dwarf in a binary detected from radio to X-rays

Ingrid Pelisoli, T. R. Marsh, David A. H. Buckley +19

White dwarf stars are the most common stellar fossils. When in binaries, they make up the dominant form of compact object binary within the Galaxy and can offer insight into differ…

Two decades of optical timing of the shortest-period binary star system HM Cancri

James Munday, T. R. Marsh, Mark Hollands +15

The shortest-period binary star system known to date, RX J0806.3+1527 (HM Cancri), has now been observed in the optical for more than two decades. Although it is thought to be a do…

white dwarfs within 40 pc III: spectroscopic observations of new candidates in the southern hemisphere

Mairi W. O'Brien, P. -E. Tremblay, N. P. Gentile Fusillo +31

We present a spectroscopic survey of 248 white dwarf candidates within 40 pc of the Sun; of these 244 are in the southern hemisphere. Observations were performed mostly with the Ve…

Discovery and analysis of three magnetic hot subdwarf stars: evidence for merger-induced magnetic fields

Ingrid Pelisoli, M. Dorsch, U. Heber +6

Magnetic fields can play an important role in stellar evolution. Among white dwarfs, the most common stellar remnant, the fraction of magnetic systems is more than 20 per cent. The…

Characterising eclipsing white dwarf M dwarf binaries from multi-band eclipse photometry

Alex J. Brown, Steven G. Parsons, Stuart P. Littlefair +10

With the prevalence of wide-field, time-domain photometric sky surveys, the number of eclipsing white dwarf systems being discovered is increasing dramatically. An efficient method…

Radial velocity variability and evolution of hot subdwarf stars

S. Geier, M. Dorsch, I. Pelisoli +3

Hot subdwarf stars represent a late and peculiar stage in the evolution of low-mass stars, because they are likely formed by close binary interactions. Here we performed a radial v…
