Cooling Process of White Dwarf Stars in Palatini f(R) Gravity [PDF]

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
A simple cooling model of white dwarf stars is re-analyzed in Palatini f(R) gravity. Modified gravity affects the white dwarf structures and consequently their ages.

White Dwarf Stars [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics: Conference Series, 2017
White dwarf stars are the final stage of most stars, born single or in multiple systems. We discuss the identification, magnetic fields, and mass distribution for white dwarfs detected from spectra obtained by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey up to Data Release 13 in 2016, which lead to the increase in the number of spectroscopically identified white ...

Asteroseismology of DAV white dwarf stars [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 1998
Following the recent mode identification by Clemens suggesting the hydrogen layer mass of the DAV (ZZ Ceti) stars is nearly the same, I make the extreme assumption that models with a single composition profile with a hydrogen layer mass of 1.5 × 10−4M* may be able to fit the observed pulsation periods.

Asteroseismology of white dwarf stars [PDF]

open access: bronzeSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
The theoretical potential of white dwarf asteroseismology is summarized. It is shown how one can derive fundamental parameters on the internal structure and evolution of these stars. The analysis of the non-radial g-modes permits in principle to determine the total mass, the rotation rate, the magnetic field strength. The mass of the outer layers, left

White-Dwarf Asteroseismology With the Kepler Space Telescope

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020
In the course of their evolution, white-dwarf stars go through at least one phase of variability in which the global pulsations they undergo allow astronomers to peer into their interiors, making it possible to shed light on their deep inner structure ...

A Chondritic Solar Neighborhood

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
A persistent question in exoplanet demographics is whether exoplanetary systems form from similar compositional building blocks to our own. Polluted white dwarf stars offer a unique way to address this question, as they provide measurements of the bulk ...

Catalog of Magnetic White Dwarfs with Hydrogen Dominated Atmospheres

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
White dwarfs are excellent research laboratories as they reach temperatures, pressures, and magnetic fields that are unattainable on Earth. To better understand how these three physical parameters interact with each other and with other stellar features,

Evidence of Stellar Oscillations in the Post-common-envelope Binary Candidate ASASSN-V J205543.90+240033.5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
ASASSN-V J205543.90+240033.5 (ASJ2055) is a possible post-common-envelope binary system. Its optical photometric data show an orbital variation of about 0.52 days and a fast period modulation of P _0 ∼ 9.77 minutes, whose origin is unknown.

Maximum mass ratio of AM CVn-type binary systems and maximum white dwarf mass in ultra-compact X-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2011
AM CVn-type stars and ultra-compact X-ray binaries are extremely interesting semi-detached close binary systems in which the Roche lobe filling component is a white dwarf transferring mass to another white dwarf, neutron star or a black hole ...
