A hidden population of white dwarfs with atmospheric carbon traces in the Gaia bifurcation
Maria Camisassa, Santiago Torres, Mark Hollands +4
The ESA Gaia space mission has revealed a bifurcation of the white dwarf (WD) sequence on the color magnitude diagram in two branches: A and B. While the A branch consists mostly o…
Systematic uncertainties in the characterisation of helium-dominated metal-polluted white dwarf atmospheres
Paula Izquierdo, Boris T. Gänsicke, Pablo Rodríguez-Gil +5
White dwarf photospheric parameters are usually obtained by means of spectroscopic or photometric analysis. These results are not always consistent with each other, with the publis…
The White Dwarf Binary Pathways Survey -- IX. Three long period white dwarf plus subgiant binaries
S. G. Parsons, M. S. Hernandez, O. Toloza +8
Virtually all binaries consisting of a white dwarf with a non-degenerate companion can be classified as either close post-interaction systems (with orbital periods of a few days or…
Asynchronous accretion can mimic diverse white dwarf pollutants II: water content
Marc G. Brouwers, Andrew M. Buchan, Amy Bonsor +3
Volatiles, notably water, are key to the habitability of rocky planets. The presence of water in planetary material can be inferred from the atmospheric oxygen abundances of pollut…
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…
Unusual Abundances from Planetary System Material Polluting the White Dwarf G238-44
Ted M Johnson, Beth L. Klein, D. Koester +3
Ultraviolet and optical spectra of the hydrogen-dominated atmosphere white dwarf star G238-44 obtained with FUSE, Keck/HIRES, HST/COS, and HST/STIS reveal ten elements heavier than…
