This volume provides a state-of-the-art review of our current knowledge of brown dwarfs and very low-mass stars. The hunt for and study of these elusive objects is currently one of the most dynamic ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has been used to determine the mass of white dwarf star LAWD 37. It is "56 percent the mass of our Sun," according to NASA/ESA. Credit: NASA, ESA, P. McGill (Univ.

ABSTRACT Our understanding of the formation and evolution of magnetic cataclysmic variables from initially detached, post–common‐envelope binary stars containing a magnetic ... excess that could be ...

White dwarfs typically have a radius just .01 times that of our own sun, but their mass is about the same. Stars like our sun fuse hydrogen in their cores into helium. White dwarfs are stars that ...

With the advent of space spectroscopy, especially HST, IUE, EUVE, and HUT, direct spectroscopic observations of exposed white dwarfs in CVs were carried out during dwarf nova quiescence or low ...

Astronomers have discovered the first pairs of white dwarf ... massive stars tend to live shorter lives and go through the stages of stellar evolution much faster than their lower mass companions.

Using the Keck II telescope, astronomers have detected an object that may be a brown dwarf or a low-mass star, exhibiting a very high radial velocity. The object, designated CWISE J124909.08 ...
