The evolution of ultra-massive white dwarfs
(EDP Sciences, 2019-05-27)
Ultra-massive white dwarfs are powerful tools used to study various physical processes in the asymptotic giant branch (AGB), type Ia supernova explosions, and the theory of crystallization through white dwarf asteroseismology. ...
Constraining the neutrino magnetic dipole moment from white dwarf pulsations
(Iop Publishing, 2014-08)
Pulsating white dwarf stars can be used as astrophysical laboratories to constrain the properties of weakly interacting particles. Comparing the cooling rates of these stars with the expected values from theoretical models ...
GW Librae: a unique laboratory for pulsations in an accreting white dwarf
(2016)
Non-radial pulsations have been identified in a number of accreting white dwarfs in cataclysmic variables. These stars offer insight into the excitation of pulsation modes in atmospheres with mixed compositions of hydrogen, ...
White dwarf stars
(Asociación Argentina de Astronomía, 2009)
White dwarfs are the most common end-product of stellarevolution, and as such contain valuable information about the evolutionof individual stars as well as about the star formation history andsubsequent evolution in our ...
