White Dwarfs in Wide Binaries: The Strong Effects of Stellar Evolution and Mass Loss
The Astrophysical JournalWe examine the statistics of main-sequence/main-sequence, main-sequence/white-dwarf, and white-dwarf/white-dwarf wide binaries at 10 ^2.5 –10 ^4 au separations in Gaia data.

A consistency test of white dwarf and main sequence ages: NGC 6791
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013 NGC 6791 is an open cluster that it is so close to us that can be imaged down to very faint luminosities. The main sequence turn-off age (∼8 Gyr) and the age derived from the cut-off of the white dwarf luminosity function (∼6 Gyr) were found to be ...

Control of Covalent Bond Enables Efficient Magnetic Cooling
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Giant and reversible magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is achieved by tuning covalency through sub‐unit‐cell chemical engineering, establishing a novel design principle for effective hysteresis control in magnetocaloric materials. Abstract Magnetic cooling, harnessing the temperature change in matter when exposed to a magnetic field, presents an energy ...

Features of the mass transfer in magnetic cataclysmic variables with fast-rotating white dwarfs
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2014 The flow structure in magnetic cataclysmic variables was investigated taking into account the effects of strong magnetic field and fast rotation of the white dwarf. We modeled the AE Aqr system as a unique object that has the rotation period of the white

The Vegan Villain Sets Out to The End of Summer: Functionalized Coatings as Biohybrid UV‐Sensors
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This study introduces biohybrid coatings incorporating E. coli biomass expressing photoconvertible fluorescent proteins as UV‐A responsive elements. Upon irradiation at 400 nm, the coatings exhibit an irreversible fluorescence shift from green to red within 15 min. Notably, the photoconversion capability is retained after >1 year of storage.

Magnetism in white Dwarfs [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1971 Searches have been made for the normal and quadratic Zeeman effect and broad-band circular polarization in white dwarf stars. A positive effect has been found in Grw + 70°8247 whose continuum shows both linear and circular polarization.

Circularly Polarized Structural Color Pigments Tunable Across the Full Visible Spectrum
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.By infusing black dye into spherical shells of polymerized cholesteric liquid crystal, blue, green and red omnidirectional retroreflectors of circularly polarized structural color are achieved. They can be laid out on arbitrary surfaces without any need for index matching binder to define graphical information for robots and Augmented Reality devices ...

Testing White Dwarf Age Estimates Using Wide Double White Dwarf Binaries from Gaia EDR3
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 White dwarf (WD) stars evolve simply and predictably, making them reliable age indicators. However, self-consistent validation of the methods for determining WD total ages has yet to be widely performed.
