  • ASASSN–14dx: a cataclysmic variable harbouring a massive pulsating white dwarf
    We present the results of our study of ASASSN–14dx, a previously known but poorly characterized cataclysmic variable (CV). The source was observed as part of an ongoing high-time-resolution photometric survey of CVs, which revealed that, in addition to the known 82.8-min orbital period, it also exhibits other transient periods, the strongest of

  • Analysis of optical spectroscopy and photometry of the type I X-ray bursting system UW CrB
    UW Coronae Borealis (UW CrB) is a low mass X-ray binary that shows both Type 1 X-ray and optical bursts, which typically last for 20 s. The system has a binary period of close to 2 hours and is thought to have a relatively high inclination due to the presence of an eclipse in the optical light curve. There is also evidence that an asymmetric disc

  • A transiting multiplanet system in the 61 Myr old association Theia 116
    Observing and characterizing young planetary systems can aid in unveiling the evolutionary mechanisms that sculpt the mature exoplanet population. As an all-sky survey, NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has expanded the known young planet population as it has observed young comoving stellar populations. This work presents the

  • A targeted search for binary white dwarf pulsars using Gaia and WISE
    After its discovery in 2016, the white dwarf binary AR Scorpii (AR Sco) remained for several years the only white dwarf system to show pulsed radio emission associated with a fast-spinning white dwarf. The evolutionary origin and the emission mechanism for AR Sco are not completely understood, with different models proposed. Testing and improving

  • A Swarm of WASP Planets: Nine Giant Planets Identified by the WASP Survey
    The Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) survey provided some of the first transiting hot Jupiter candidates. With the addition of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), many WASP planet candidates have now been revisited and given updated transit parameters. Here, we present nine transiting planets orbiting FGK stars that were

  • A super-Chandrasekhar mass type Ia supernova progenitor at 49 pc set to detonate in 23 Gyr
    Double white dwarf binaries are a leading explanation of the origin of type Ia supernovae, but no system exceeding the Chandrasekhar mass limit (1.4 M ⊙) has been found that will explode anywhere close to a Hubble time. Here we present the super-Chandrasekhar mass double white dwarf WDJ181058.67+311940.94 whose merger time (22.6 ± 1.0 Gyr) is of
