Discovery of the Richest Pulsating Ultramassive White Dwarf

Discovery of the Richest Pulsating Ultramassive White Dwarf

The discovery of pulsations in ultramassive (UM) white dwarfs (WDs) can help to probe their interiors and unveil their core composition and crystallized mass fraction through asteroseismic techniques. To date, the richest pulsating UM WD known is BPM 37093 with 8 modes detected, for which detailed a...
