White dwarfs are a class of stars with unique physical properties. They present many
challenging problems whose solution requires advanced theories of dense matter, state-of …

The presence of a strong magnetic field is a feature common to a significant fraction of
degenerate stars, yet little is understood about the field's origin and evolution. New …

We enhance the treatment of crystallization for models of white dwarfs (WDs) in the stellar
evolution software Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) by implementing …

White dwarf stars are the most common stellar fossils. When in binaries, they make up the
dominant form of compact object binary within the Galaxy and can offer insight into different …

We investigate heat transport associated with compositionally driven convection driven by
crystallization at the ocean–crust interface in accreting neutron stars, or growth of the solid …

We present a spectrophotometric analysis of 2880 cool white dwarfs within 100 pc of the
Sun and cooler than T eff∼ 10 000 K, with grizy Pan-STARRS photometry and Gaia …

ABSTRACT A convective dynamo operating during the crystallization of white dwarfs is one
of the promising channels to produce their observed strong magnetic fields. Although the …

We present a detailed model atmosphere analysis of massive white dwarfs with M> 0.9 M⊙
and T eff≥ 11,000 K in the Montreal White Dwarf Database 100 pc sample and the Pan …

We present a comprehensive overview of a volume-complete sample of white dwarfs
located within 40 pc of the Sun, a significant proportion of which were detected in Gaia Data …

ABSTRACT A new class of white dwarfs, dubbed DAHe, that present Zeeman-split Balmer
lines in emission has recently emerged. However, the physical origin of these emission lines …
