Rotation at the Fully Convective Boundary: Insights from Wide WD + MS Binary Systems

Rotation at the Fully Convective Boundary: Insights from Wide WD + MS Binary Systems

Gyrochronology, a valuable tool for determining ages of low-mass stars where other techniques fail, relies on accurate calibration. We present a sample of 185 wide (>100 au) white dwarf + main sequence (WD + MS) binaries. Total ages of WDs are computed using all-sky survey photometry, Gaia parall...
