Abstract The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will be a transformative experiment
for gravitational wave astronomy, and, as such, it will offer unique opportunities to address …

TURBOMOLE is a highly optimized software suite for large-scale quantum-chemical and
materials science simulations of molecules, clusters, extended systems, and periodic solids …

White dwarfs are a class of stars with unique physical properties. They present many
challenging problems whose solution requires advanced theories of dense matter, state-of …

We present a catalogue of white dwarf candidates selected from the second data release of
Gaia (DR2). We used a sample of spectroscopically confirmed white dwarfs from the Sloan …

Hot subluminous stars of spectral type B and O are core helium-burning stars at the blue end
of the horizontal branch or have evolved even beyond that stage. Most hot subdwarf stars …

White dwarfs represent the last stage of evolution of stars with mass less than about eight
times that of the Sun and, like other stars, are often found in binaries,. If the orbital period of …

The origin of magnetic fields in white dwarfs remains a fundamental unresolved problem in
stellar astrophysics. In particular, the very different fractions of strongly (more than about a …

We present the first volume-limited sample of cataclysmic variables (CVs), selected using
the accurate parallaxes provided by the second data release (DR2) of the European Space …

The presence of a strong magnetic field is a feature common to a significant fraction of
degenerate stars, yet little is understood about the field's origin and evolution. New …

Many stars evolve into magnetic white dwarfs (MWDs), and observations may help to
understand when the magnetic field appears at the stellar surface, if and how it evolves …
