Asteroseismology of DAV white dwarf stars [PDF]
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]
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 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 ...

White dwarf stars with carbon atmospheres [PDF]
White dwarfs represent the endpoint of stellar evolution for stars with initial masses between approximately 0.07 and 8-10, where is the mass of the Sun (more massive stars end their life as either black holes or neutron stars). The theory of stellar evolution predicts that the majority of white dwarfs have a core made of carbon and oxygen, which ...

A radio-pulsing white dwarf binary star [PDF]
White dwarfs are compact stars, similar in size to Earth but ~200,000 times more massive. Isolated white dwarfs emit most of their power from ultraviolet to near-infrared wavelengths, but when in close orbits with less dense stars, white dwarfs can strip material from their companions, and the resulting mass transfer can generate atomic line and X-ray ...

In this research, first considering the electron–electron interaction in the high-density Fermi electron gas at T = 0 K, this interaction causes the pressure 2/137 time less than the original value.

The present study investigates recycling of NiTi shape memory alloys via vacuum induction melting. An ingot was synthesized from elemental Ni and Ti and subjected to three subsequent remelting cycles. Remelting increases process durations and impurity levels and adversely affects microstructures and functional properties.
