A Catalog of Spectroscopically Identified White Dwarfs
George P. McCook,Edward M. Sion +1 more
TL;DR: A catalog of 2249 white dwarfs which have been identified spectroscopically is presented complete through 1996 April as discussed by the authors, complete with references for each degenerate star and a list of most names known to exist for a given star.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new look at the local white dwarf population
Jay B. Holberg,Edward M. Sion,Terry D. Oswalt,George P. McCook,Sean Foran,John P. Subasavage +5 more
TL;DR: A detailed survey of the local population of white dwarfs lying within 20 pc of the Sun is presented in this article, which contains 27 white dwarf not included in a previous list from 2002, as well as new and recently published trigonometric parallaxes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The White Dwarfs Within 20 Parsecs of the Sun: Kinematics and Statistics
TL;DR: The spectral properties, distribution of spectroscopic subtypes, and stellar population subcomponents of the white dwarfs within 20 pc of the Sun have been studied in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 25 Parsec Local White Dwarf Population
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the results of a large-scale experiment at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) and the Max-Planck-Institute for Astrophysics (MPA).
Journal ArticleDOI
Eclipsing Binaries as Astrophysical Laboratories: Internal Structure, Convective Core Overshooting and Evolution of the B-star Components of V380 Cygni
Edward F. Guinan,Ignasi Ribas,Edward L. Fitzpatrick,Alvaro Gimenez,Carme Jordi,George P. McCook,Daniel M. Popper +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the photometric elements obtained from the analysis of the light curves have been combined with the spectroscopic solution recently published by Popper & Guinan and have led to the physical properties of the system components.
