The physics of white dwarfs
White dwarf stars, so called because of the color of the first few to be discovered, occupy a key position in astrophysical theory. Together with neutron stars and black holes, they are the terminal points of stellar evolution. Their properties thus provide clues to the physical processes that take place during the rapid and often spectacular evolutionary stages near the ends of stellar lifetim...
متن کاملAccreting White Dwarfs
Thermonuclear (type Ia) supernovae are explosions in accreting white dwarfs, but the exact scenario leading to these explosions is still unclear. An important step to clarify this point is to understand the behaviour of accreting white dwarfs in close binary systems. The characteristics of the white dwarf (mass, chemical composition, luminosity), the accreted material (chemical composition) and...
متن کاملWhite Dwarfs in the Capodimonte Deep Field
The goal of this project is to search for white dwarf (WD) candidates in the Capodimonte Deep Field (OACDF) photometric survey and confirm their nature through spectroscopy. In this contribution we discuss our selection criteria and present the spectra of two objects confirmed to be DA WDs (plus one misclassified object). Their spectra have been fitted with white dwarf models in order to determ...
متن کاملGaia brown dwarfs and binary detections through timing orbits
Duplicity detection may also be done through the analysis of the light curves of variable stars. A light-time effect due to 10 Jupiter mass companions with period > 11 yr may be tested on more than 10 stars observed by Gaia.
متن کاملMagnetic Accretion Onto White Dwarfs
The influence of the magnetic field on process of the accretion onto White Dwarfs in Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) is discussed. Except for the Polars or AM Her objects, the strength of magnetic field can not be measured directly in CVs by modern techniques. But there is growing evidence that most of the types of Cataclysmic Variables classified on the basis of their observational characteristics...
