Descripción
DQ white dwarfs have Teff values below 13000 K and are characterized by
the presence of trace amounts of carbon in their helium-rich
atmospheres. The wide range of surface carbon abundances they exhibit
could be reflecting the existence of hydrogen-deficient white dwarfs
with a variety of evolutionary history and formation processes. The aim
of this work is to analize distinct evolutionary channels that could
lead to the formation of DQ white dwarfs.
