A New Generation of Cool White Dwarf Atmosphere Models. II. A DZ Star with Collision-Induced Absorption
Simon Blouin, Patrick Dufour, Nicole F. Allard +1
In the first paper of this series (Blouin et al. 2018), we presented our upgraded cool white dwarf atmosphere code. In this second paper, we use our new models to analyze SDSS J080…
Line shapes of the magnesium resonance lines in cool DZ white dwarf atmospheres
N. F. Allard, J. F. Kielkopf, S. Blouin +4
Line shapes of the magnesium resonance lines in white dwarf spectra are determined by the properties of magnesium atoms and the structure of the white dwarf atmosphere. Through the…
A New Generation of Cool White Dwarf Atmosphere Models. I. Theoretical Framework and Applications to DZ Stars
Simon Blouin, Patrick Dufour, Nicole F. Allard
The photospheres of the coolest helium-atmosphere white dwarfs are characterized by fluid-like densities. Under those conditions, standard approximations used in model atmosphere c…
