The first pulsar + pulsating white dwarf binary |
|
Abstract |
Our targeted survey of extremely low mass white dwarfs has discovered a significant number of compact binaries in the last 5 years. Some of these systems are strong gravitational wave sources and potential progenitors of under-luminous or type Ia supernovae and AM CVn systems. I will present the most recent highlights from the ELM Survey including the limits on potential neutron star companions, the discovery of a new 20-min orbital period binary system, and the first ever discovery of a millisecond pulsar + pulsating white dwarf binary. |
