Double White Dwarf Binaries in SDSS-V DR19 : A catalog of DA white dwarf binaries and constraints on the binary population

Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Vedant Chandra, Nadia L. Zakamska +17

The fifth-generation Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) includes the first large-scale spectroscopic survey of white dwarfs (WDs) in the era of Gaia parallaxes. SDSS-V collects mult…

A Large Catalog of DA White Dwarf Characteristics Using SDSS and Gaia Observations

Nicole R. Crumpler, Vedant Chandra, Nadia L. Zakamska +12

We present a catalog of 8545 and 19,257 unique DA white dwarfs observed in SDSS Data Release 19 and previous SDSS data releases, respectively. This is the largest catalog of both s…

Detection of the Temperature Dependence of the White Dwarf Mass-Radius Relation with Gravitational Redshifts

Nicole R. Crumpler, Vedant Chandra, Nadia L. Zakamska +8

Models predict that the well-studied mass-radius relation of white dwarf stars depends on the temperature of the star, with hotter white dwarfs having larger masses at a given radi…

Five New Post-Main-Sequence Debris Disks with Gaseous Emission

Erik Dennihy, Siyi Xu, Samuel Lai +13

Observations of debris disks, the products of the collisional evolution of rocky planetesimals, can be used to trace planetary activity across a wide range of stellar types. The mo…

Single magnetic white dwarfs with Balmer emission lines: A small class with consistent physical characteristics as possible signposts for close-in planetary companions

Boris T. Gaensicke, Pablo Rodriguez-Gil, Nicola P. Gentile Fusillo +4

We report the identification of SDSS J121929.45+471522.8 as the third apparently isolated magnetic (B~18.5+/-1.0,MG) white dwarf exhibiting Zeeman-split Balmer emission lines. The…

White dwarf pollution by hydrated planetary remnants: Hydrogen and Metals in WD J204713.76-125908.9

Matthew J. Hoskin, Odette Toloza, Boris T. Gänsicke +9

WD J204713.76-125908.9 is a new addition to the small class of white dwarfs with helium-dominated photospheres that exhibit strong Balmer absorption lines and atmospheric metal pol…
