The effects of close binaries on the magnetic activity of M dwarfs as probed using close white dwarf companions
I present a study of close white dwarf (WD) and M dwarf (dM) binary systems (WD+dM) to examine the effects that close companions have on the magnetic field generation in dMs. Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 8 spectroscopic database, I construct a sample of 1756 WD+dM high-qual...
