  • DA-white dwarfs from SDSS and UKIDSS

    We present a method which uses colour-colour cuts on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometry to select white dwarfs with hydrogen-rich (DA) atmospheres without the...
  • Variability of FBS blue stellar objects

    A new method for combined calculations of magnitudes based on accurate measurements of POSS1 and POSS2 epoch plates is given. The photometric accuracy of various surveys and...
  • Kepler compact pulsator candidates

    We present results from the final 6 months of a survey to search for pulsations in white dwarfs (WDs) and hot subdwarf stars with the Kepler spacecraft. Spectroscopic...
  • Candidate subdwarfs and white dwarfs

    Photometry from the Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS), United States Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC3) and SuperCosmos catalogues, together with proper motions...
  • SDSS post-common envelope binaries. X

    We present the first white dwarf mass distributions of a large and homogeneous sample of post-common envelope binaries (PCEBs) and wide white dwarf main-sequence (WDMS) binaries...
  • Hot white dwarfs in GALEX-DR5

    We present comprehensive catalogues of hot star candidates in the Milky Way (MW), selected from Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) far-UV (FUV; 1344-1786{AA}) and near-UV (NUV;...
  • Kepler compact pulsator candidates

    We present results from the first two quarters of a survey to search for pulsations in compact stellar objects with the Kepler spacecraft. The survey sample and the various...
  • Parameters of atmospheres of white dwarfs

    It is possible to reliably identify white dwarfs (WDs) without recourse to spectra, instead using photometric and astrometric measurements to distinguish them from main-sequence...
  • SDSS ultracool and halo WD candidates

    A 2.5x100{deg}^2^ region along the celestial equator (Stripe 82) has been imaged repeatedly from 1998 to 2005 by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). A new catalogue of ~4...
  • SDSS WD main-sequence binaries

    We present a detailed analysis of 101 white dwarf main-sequence binaries (WDMS) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) for which multiple SDSS spectra are available. Cone...
  • U Gem spectroscopy

    We present a phase-resolved spectroscopic study of the secondary star in the cataclysmic variable (CV) U Gem. We use our data to measure the radial velocity semi-amplitude,...
  • DA white dwarfs in 2dF QSO Redshift Survey

    We report the spectroscopic identification of close to 1000 hydrogen-rich (DA) white dwarfs discovered in the course of the Anglo-Australian 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ, Cat....
  • FAUST UV sources towards Ophiuchus

    We present results of an analysis of a UV image in the direction of Ophiuchus, obtained with the FAUST instrument. The image contains 228 UV sources. Most of these are...
  • Binary evolution

    Using Eggleton's stellar evolution code, we carry out 150 runs of Population I binary evolution calculations with the initial primary mass between 1 and 8 solar masses, the...
  • LAMOST DR9 white dwarf cand. from deep-learning

    White dwarfs represent the ultimate stage of evolution for over 97% of stars and play a crucial role in studies of the Milky Way's structure and evolution. Recent years have...
  • Ages of field stars from white dwarf comp. in Gaia

    We analyze 4050 wide binary star systems involving a white dwarf (WD) and usually a main-sequence (MS) star, drawn from the large sample assembled by Tian+ (2020, J/ApJS/246/4)....
  • SDSS DR7 white dwarf catalog

    We present a new catalog of spectroscopically confirmed white dwarf stars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7 spectroscopic catalog. We find 20407 white...
  • NOFS astrometric measurements for distant WDs

    This paper presents new trigonometric parallaxes and proper motions for 214 stars. The measurements were made at the US Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station between 1989 and...
  • UV emission of stars in LAMOST. I. Catalogs

    We present the ultraviolet magnitudes for over three million stars in the LAMOST survey, in which 2,202,116 stars are detected by GALEX. For 889,235 undetected stars, we develop...
  • 27 pulsating DA WDs follow-up observations

    We present photometry and spectroscopy for 27 pulsating hydrogen-atmosphere white dwarfs (DAVs; a.k.a. ZZ Ceti stars) observed by the Kepler space telescope up to K2 Campaign 8,...
