Course Description

Overview

Explore a 28-minute conference talk on predicting and assigning spectra from strongly magnetized systems, presented by Stella Stopkowicz from Saarland University. Delivered as part of the "White Dwarfs from Physics to Astrophysics" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, this presentation delves into the latest research on white dwarfs and their role in understanding various astrophysical phenomena. Gain insights into how astrometric, photometric, and spectroscopic all-sky surveys provide a comprehensive view of the Galactic white dwarf population, and learn about the opportunities these data present for probing star and planet formation, Galactic star formation rates, and potential gravitational wave sources. Discover how improved models of electron-degenerate stars rely on advancements in equations of state and opacities, and understand the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration between observational and theoretical experts in white dwarf studies, fundamental physics, and astronomy.
