Evolutionary and pulsational properties of white dwarf stars

LG Althaus, AH Córsico, J Isern… - The Astronomy and …, 2010 - Springer
White dwarf stars are the final evolutionary stage of the vast majority of stars, including our
Sun. Since the coolest white dwarfs are very old objects, the present population of white …

The white dwarf luminosity function

E García–Berro, TD Oswalt - New Astronomy Reviews, 2016 - Elsevier
White dwarfs are the final remnants of low-and intermediate-mass stars. Their evolution is
essentially a cooling process that lasts for∼ 10 Gyr. Their observed properties provide …

Binary white dwarfs in the halo of the Milky Way
