Constraints on Remnant Planetary Systems as a Function of Main-sequence Mass with HST/COS

As the descendants of stars with masses less than 8 M _⊙ on the main sequence, white dwarfs provide a unique way to constrain planetary occurrence around intermediate-mass stars (spectral types BAF) that are otherwise difficult to measure with radial-velocity or transit surveys. We update the analys...
