    Magnetic fields in isolated and interacting white dwarfs Lilia Ferrario1 and Dayal Wickramasinghe2 Mathematical Sciences Institute, The Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia Adela Kawka3 International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research, Curtin University, Perth, WA 6102, Australia Abstract The magnetic white dwarfs (MWDs) are found either isolated or in inter- acting binaries. The isolated MWDs divide into two groups: a high field group (105 − 109 G) comprising some 13 ± 4% of all white dwarfs (WDs), and a low field group (B < 105 G) whose incidence is currently under investigation. The situation may be similar in magnetic binaries because the bright accretion discs in low field systems hide the photosphere of their WDs thus preventing the study of their magnetic fields’ strength and structure. Considerable research has been devoted to the vexed question on the origin of magnetic fields. One hypothesis is that WD magnetic fields are of fossil origin, that is, their progenitors are the magnetic main-sequence Ap/Bp stars and magnetic flux is conserved during their evolution. The other hypothesis is that magnetic fields arise from binary interaction, through differential rotation, during common envelope evolution. If the two stars merge the end product is a single high-field MWD. If close binaries survive and the primary develops a strong field, they may later evolve into the arXiv:2001.10147v1 [astro-ph.SR] 28 Jan 2020 magnetic cataclysmic variables (MCVs). The recently discovered population of hot, carbon-rich WDs exhibiting an incidence of magnetism of up to about 70% and a variability from a few minutes to a couple of days may support the [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Preprint submitted to Journal of LATEX Templates January 29, 2020 merging binary hypothesis.

  • The Giant Planet Orbiting the Cataclysmic Binary DP Leonis

We searched for such planets in DP Leo, an eclipsing short-period binary, which shows long-term eclipse-time variations. Using published, reanalysed, and new mid-eclipse times of the white dwarf in DPLeo, obtained between 1979 and 2010, we find agreement with the light-travel-time effect produced by a third body in an elliptical orbit. In particular, the measured binary period in 2009/2010 and the implied radial velocity coincide with the values predicted for the motion of the binary and the third body around the common center of mass. The orbital period, semi-major axis, and eccentricity of the third body are Pc = 28.0±2.0 yrs, ac = 8.2 ± 0.4 AU, and ec = 0.39±0.13.

  • Planet Formation in Binaries 3
    Noname manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Planet formation in Binaries P. Thebault · N. Haghighipour the date of receipt and acceptance should be inserted later Abstract Spurred by the discovery of more than 60 exoplanets in multiple systems, binaries have become in recent years one of the main topics in planet formation re- search. Numerous studies have investigated to what extent the presence of a stellar companion can affect the planet formation process. Such studies have implications that can reach beyond the sole context of binaries, as they allow to test certain as- pects of the planet formation scenario by submitting them to extreme environments. We review here the current understanding on this complex problem. We show in par- ticular how each of the different stages of the planet-formation process is affected differently by binary perturbations. We focus especially on the intermediate stage of kilometre-sized planetesimal accretion, which has proven to be the most sensitive to binarity and for which the presence of some exoplanets observed in tight binaries is difficult to explain by in-situ formation following the ”standard” planet-formation scenario. Some tentative solutions to this apparent paradox are presented. The last part of our review presents a thorough description of the problem of planet habit- ability, for which the binary environment creates a complex situation because of the presence of two irradiation sources of varying distance. Keywords Planetary systems · Binary Stars 1 Introduction About half of solar-type stars reside in multiple stellar systems (Raghavan et al., 2010). As a consequence, one of the most generic environments to be considered for studying planet formation should in principle be that of a binary.

  • The BAA VSS Lont Term Polar Monitoring Programme. the First
    The BAA VSS Long Term Polar Monitoring Programme The first five years, 2006−2011 Gary Poyner A report of the Variable Star Section. Director: R. D. Pickard A programme of observation to monitor the long term optical behaviour of a small group of magnetic cataclysmic variable stars (Polars) has been set up and run by the Variable Star Section of the British Astronomical Association. Here we present the results of the first five years of our study − 2006 to 2011 − in the form of lightcurves for 17 of the 18 objects on the programme.

  • A Triple Origin for the Lack of Tight Coplanar Circumbinary Planets Around Short-Period Binaries
    Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 000, 1–24 (2015) Printed July 15, 2021 (MN LATEX style file v2.2) A triple origin for the lack of tight coplanar circumbinary planets around short-period binaries Adrian S. Hamers1⋆, Hagai B. Perets2 and Simon F. Portegies Zwart1 1Leiden Observatory, Leiden University, PO Box 9513, NL-2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands 2Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa 32000, Israel MNRAS 455, 3, 3180-3200 (2016) Accepted 2015 October 20. Received 2015 October 20; in original form 2015 June 5 ABSTRACT Transiting circumbinary planets are more easily detected around short-period than long-period binaries, but none have yet been observed by Kepler orbiting binaries with periods shorter than seven days. In triple systems, secular Kozai-Lidov cycles and tidal friction (KLCTF) have been shown to reduce the inner orbital period from ∼ 104 to a few days. Indeed, the majority of short-period binaries are observed to possess a third stellar companion. Using secular evolution analysis and population synthesis, we show that KLCTF makes it unlikely for circumbinary transiting planets to exist around short-period binaries. We find the following outcomes. (1) Sufficiently massive planets in tight and/or coplanar orbits around the inner binary can quench the KL evolution because they induce precession in the inner binary. The KLCTF process does not take place, preventing the formation of a short-period binary. (2) Secular evolution is not quenched and it drives the planetary orbit into a high eccentricity, giving rise to an unstable configuration, in which the planet is most likely ejected from the system.
