Measuring White Dwarf Variability from Sparsely Sampled Gaia DR3 Multi-epoch Photometry
White dwarf stars are ubiquitous in the Galaxy, and are essential to understanding stellar evolution. While most white dwarfs are photometrically stable and reliable flux standards, some can be highly variable, which can reveal unique details about the endpoints of low-mass stellar evolution. In thi...
