A Catalog of Spectroscopically Confirmed White Dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4 [PDF]
We present a catalog of 9316 spectroscopically confirmed white dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4. We have selected the stars through photometric cuts and spectroscopic modeling, backed up by a set of visual inspections. Roughly 6000

The DB gap and a new class of pulsating white dwarfs
The recent systematic surveys providing enormously massive datasets of white dwarfs show that there is still a deficit of a factor of 2.5 in the DA/non-DA ratio within the temperature range of 30 000 K < Teff < 45 000 K, which has been regarded as the ...

Origin of the DA and non-DA white dwarf stars [PDF]
Understanding the origin of DA and non-DA stars — the bifurcation of the white dwarf cooling sequence — is one of oldest and perniciously difficult problems in the white dwarf research field. Processes which could play a role have been discussed for years. For example, the idea of diffusive element separation was suggested by Schatzman (1958).

Analysis of cool DO-type white dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 10 [PDF]
We report on the identification of 22 new cool DO-type white dwarfs (WD) detected in Data Release 10 (DR10) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Among them, we found one more member of the so-called hot-wind DO WDs, which show ultrahigh excitation ...

Do Hydrogen-Deficient Carbon Stars Have Winds? [PDF]
We present high resolution spectra of the five known hydrogen-deficient carbon (HdC) stars in the vicinity of the 10830 angstrom line of neutral helium. In R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars the He I line is known to be strong and broad, often with a P Cygni

An Initial Survey of White Dwarfs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]
An initial assessment is made of white dwarf and hot subdwarf stars observed in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. In a small area of sky (190 square degrees), observed much like the full survey will be, 269 white dwarfs and 56 hot subdwarfs are identified ...

"The Visit" (2021), de Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie: feminismo literário e ficção especulativa
Bastante difundido nos Estados Unidos, o termo “ficção especulativa” indica uma extensa produção literária na qual conjunturas, tempos e espaços alternativos têm sido imaginados, resultando em um corpus literário rico de significados.

A PRESENÇA DA FRAGMENTAÇÃO CONSTITUCIONAL NO SENADO GALÁCTICO DA FRANQUIA STAR WARS
Na história de Star Wars, em que pese a República Galáctica tenha instituído um ordenamento jurídico universal, há planetas com leis próprias, direitos não-oficiais, em um exemplo claro de pluralismo jurídico. Na contemporaneidade, é possível constatar que, assim como no filme, os atuais modelos de direito não conseguem mais abranger a todos os ...
