Further investigation of white dwarfs in the open clusters NGC2287 and NGC3532

TL;DR: A CCD imaging survey that aims to probe the fate of heavy-weight intermediate-mass stars by unearthing new, faint, white dwarf members of the rich, nearby, intermediate-age open clusters NGC 3532 and NGC 2287 identifies a total of four white dwarfs with distances, proper motions and cooling times which can be reconciled with membership of these populations.

- 06 Dec 2010
TL;DR: In this paper, a survey of the open clusters NGC3532 and NGC2287 for new white dwarf members is presented, which can help improve understanding of the form of the upper end of the stellar initial mass-final mass relation.

TL;DR: In this paper, a spectroscopic component analysis of 18 candidate young, wide, non-magnetic, double-degenerate binaries identified from a search of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (DR7) is presented.
Further investigation of white dwarfs in the open clusters NGC 2287 and NGC 3532
Paul Dobbie,Paul Dobbie,Avril C. Day-Jones,Kurtis A. Williams,Sarah L. Casewell,Matthew R. Burleigh,Nicolas Lodieu,Nicolas Lodieu,Quentin A. Parker,Quentin A. Parker,Richard Baxter +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the results of a CCD imaging survey, complemented by astrometric and spectroscopic follow-up studies, that aims to probe the fate of heavy-weight intermediate-mass stars by unearthing new, faint, white dwarf members of the rich, nearby, intermediate-age open clusters NGC 3532 and NGC 2287.
Two new young, wide, magnetic + non-magnetic double-degenerate binary systems
Paul Dobbie,Richard Baxter,Baybars Külebi,Quentin A. Parker,Quentin A. Parker,Detlev Koester,Stefan Jordan,Nicolas Lodieu,Nicolas Lodieu,Fabian Euchner +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the discovery of two, rare, wide, double-degenerate binaries that each contain a magnetic and a non-magnetic star, which are associated with an early-type progenitor (M init > 2 M⊙).
