The LMC Microlensing Events: Evidence for a Warped and Flaring Milky Way Disk? by Evans, N, Gyuk, G, Turner, MS, Binney, J

“…The other obvious candidate for the lenses is a population of white dwarfs. But, the precursor population must have polluted the interstellar medium with metals, in conflict with current population II abundance. …”

He-rich Hot Subdwarf Stars Observed in Gaia DR3 and LAMOST DR7: Carbon and Nitrogen Abundances and Kinematics by Yangping Luo, Péter Németh, Kun Wang, Yang Pan

Freeze-in dark matter via lepton portal: Hubble tension and stellar cooling by Zixuan Xu, Shuai Xu, Ruopeng Zhang, Sibo Zheng

Accretion onto a static spherically symmetric regular MOG dark compact object by Kourosh Nozari, Sara Saghafi, Fateme Aliyan

Observations of Doppler Boosting in Kepler Lightcurves by Kerkwijk, M, Rappaport, SA, Breton, R, Justham, S, Podsiadlowski, P, Han, Z

“…We re-analyze the Kepler data and demonstrate that both companions are likely to be white dwarfs. We also find that the photometric data for KOI 74 show a modulation in brightness as the more luminous star orbits, due to Doppler boosting. …”

Modeling Solids in Nuclear Astrophysics with Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics by I. Sagert, O. Korobkin, I. Tews, B.-J. Tsao, H. Lim, M. Falato, J. Loiseau

Late-outburst radio flaring in SS Cyg and evidence for a powerful kinetic output channel in cataclysmic variables by Fender, R, Bright, J, Mooley, K, Miller-Jones, J

“…Accreting white dwarfs in binary systems known as cataclysmic variables (CVs) have in recent years been shown to produce radio flares during outbursts, qualitatively similar to those observed from neutron star and black hole X-ray binaries, but their ubiquity and energetic significance for the accretion flow has remained uncertain. …”

On the kinematics of a runaway Be star population by Boubert, D, Evans, NW

“…The remaining 82.5 per cent should be in binaries with subdwarfs, white dwarfs, or neutron stars, because those systems either remained bound post-supernova or avoided the supernova entirely. …”

Optimization of Design Parameters for Gravitational Wave Detector DECIGO Including Fundamental Noises by Yuki Kawasaki, Ryuma Shimizu, Tomohiro Ishikawa, Koji Nagano, Shoki Iwaguchi, Izumi Watanabe, Bin Wu, Shuichiro Yokoyama, Seiji Kawamura

“…To simulate the SNR more realistically, we optimize DECIGO’s parameters considering the GWs from double white dwarfs (DWDs) and the thermal noise of test masses. …”

Runaway and Hypervelocity Stars from Compact Object Encounters in Globular Clusters by Tomás Cabrera, Carl L. Rodriguez

“…However, the same ejections can only account for 1.5%–20% of the total population of stellar runaways, and only 0.0001%–1% of HVS, with similar relative rates found for runaway white dwarfs. We also provide credible regions for ejecta from 149 MWGCs, which we hope will be useful as supplementary evidence when pairing runaway stars with origin GCs.…”

TURBULENT CHEMICAL DIFFUSION IN CONVECTIVELY BOUNDED CARBON FLAMES by Lecoanet, Daniel, Schwab, Josiah, Quataert, Eliot, Bildsten, Lars, Timmes, F. X., Vasil, Geoffrey M., Oishi, Jeffrey S., Brown, Benjamin P., Burns, Keaton James

“…Extrapolating to realistic stellar conditions, this implies that convective mixing cannot stall a carbon flame and that "hybrid carbon–oxygen–neon" white dwarfs are not a typical product of stellar evolution.…”

Unified Analytic Melt-Shear Model in the Limit of Quantum Melting by Leonid Burakovsky, Dean L. Preston

“…This phenomenon, as well as the opposite phenomenon of quantum crystallization, may occur in dense stellar objects such as white dwarfs, and may play an important role in their evolution that requires a reliable thermoelasticity model for proper physical description. …”

Analytic Understanding of the Resonant Nature of Kozai–Lidov Cycles with a Precessing Quadrupole Potential by Ygal Y. Klein, Boaz Katz

“…Previous numerical experiments have shown that when the precession frequency is comparable to the Kozai–Lidov timescale, long-term evolution emerges that involves extremely high eccentricities with potential applications for a broad scope of astrophysical phenomena, including systems with merging black holes, neutron stars, or white dwarfs. By averaging the secular equations of motion over the Kozai–Lidov cycles (KLCs), we solve the problem analytically in the neighborhood of the KLC fixed point where the eccentricity vector is close to unity and aligned with the quadrupole axis and for a precession rate similar to the Kozai–Lidov timescale. …”

“…The engulfment of substellar bodies (SBs), such as brown dwarfs and planets, by giant stars is a possible explanation for rapidly rotating giants, lithium-rich giants, and the presence of SBs in close orbits around subdwarfs and white dwarfs. We perform three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of the flow in the vicinity of an engulfed SB. …”
