White Dwarfs in Close Binaries: A Systematic Search for Mass Transfer Systems and Supernova Ia Progenitors
White dwarfs are the evolutionary end point of the vast majority of stars (97 per cent),where a large fraction of systems, around 25 per cent, are close enough to a binary companion that mass is transferred from one star to the other, changing the structures of both stars and their subsequent evolution.
