PPT-Searching for Planets Around White Dwarfs

J Ellis Department of Astronomy University of Texas Austin TX 78712 USA White dwarfs are remnants of stars that have depleted all fusible resources 97 of stars end their lives as white dwarfs. A Davenport Astronomy 521 2010 Term Paper Abstract Since M dwarfs comprise 75 of the stars in our galaxy including many nearby stars they may be a critical location to search for habitable planets Classically these systems have been thought to be in The Seven Dwarfs. Long ago, in a faraway place, there lived a lovely princess named Snow White. Her hair was black as coal, her lips red as rose, and her skin as white as snow. Snow White's stepmother, the Queen, was very cruel.. 101 Slide Set:. New Neighbors. Developed by. . the WISE Team. 0. Topic:. Nearby brown dwarfs . Concepts: .
