• Asteroseismology of massive ZZ Ceti stars : an updated grid of fully evolutionary models 

      Klippel, Theylor Schumacher (2021) [Dissertação]
      White dwarfs stars are by far the most common outcome of stellar evolution, being the final product of more than 95% of all stars in the Milk Way. During their evolution, the white dwarf stars cross several zones known as ...
    • Extremely low-mass white dwarfs in interacting binary systems 

      Soethe, Leonardo Taynô Tosetto (2021) [Tese]
      Extremely low-mass white dwarfs (ELM WDs) are understood to be the result of binary evolution in which a low-mass donor star — mass of the order of that of the Sun — is stripped by its companion, leaving behind a helium-core ...
    • Magnetic white dwarfs rich in hydrogen 

      Amorim, Larissa Luciano (2021) [Dissertação]
      The way to understand nature and its laws is through the study of matter under the most diverse conditions. In this context, white dwarfs prove to be an excellent research laboratory, as they reach have temperatures, ...
    • The impact of axion emission on the cooling of white dwarf stars 

      Fritzen, Jamile Katiele (2021) [Dissertação]
      Axions are theoretical particles that have been probed in stellar systems such as white dwarf stars, which have already been shown to be excellent laboratories for the study of axions with coupling to electrons. However, ...
    • White dwarf and subdwarf stars in the sloan digital sky survey 

      Pelisoli, Ingrid Domingos (2018) [Tese]
      White dwarf stars are the final observable evolutionary state of over 95% of stars and also a common outcome in binary evolution. Therefore, studying white dwarfs is a powerful tool to understand both single and binary ...
