We present a catalogue of 73 221 white dwarf candidates extracted from the astrometric and
photometric data of the recently published Gaia-DR2 catalogue. White dwarfs were selected …

We revisit the properties and astrophysical implications of the field white dwarf mass
distribution in preparation of Gaia applications. Our study is based on the two samples with …

ABSTRACT The upcoming Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission offers the
unique opportunity to study the Milky Way through gravitational wave (GW) radiation from a …

We analyse the volume-limited nearly complete 100 pc sample of 95 halo white dwarf
candidates identified by the second data release of Gaia. Based on a detailed population …

Gaia-DR2 has provided an unprecedented number of white dwarf candidates of our Galaxy.
In particular, it is estimated that Gaia-DR2 has observed nearly 400 000 of these objects and …

Context. White dwarfs are considered to be efficient cosmochronometers. Thanks to the
recent space-borne mission Gaia, a nearly complete sample up to about 100 parsecs from …

Context. The white dwarf luminosity function is an important tool to understand the properties
of the solar neighborhood, like its star formation history, and its age. Aims. Here we present …

Context. In the absence of a third dredge-up episode during the asymptotic giant-branch
phase, white dwarf models evolved from low-metallicity progenitors have a thick hydrogen …

We use three different techniques to identify hundreds of white dwarf (WD) candidates in the
Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) based on photometry from the NGVS and …

Studying galaxies helps scientists understand better the structure and history of the
Universe. The properties of galaxies, such as their dynamics and evolution, can be inferred …
