Discovery of five new massive pulsating white dwarf stars.
CASTANHEIRA B.G., KEPLER S.O., KLEINMAN S.J., NITTA A. and FRAGA L.
Abstract (from CDS):
In this paper, we present a first seismological study of the new massive pulsators based on the few frequencies detected. Our analysis indicates that these stars have masses higher than average, in agreement with the spectroscopic determinations. In addition, we study for the first time the ensemble properties of the pulsating white dwarf stars with masses above 0.8 M☉. We found a bimodal distribution of the main pulsation period with the effective temperature for the massive DAVs, which indicates mode selection mechanisms.
