The White Dwarf Pareto: Tracing Mass Loss in Binary Systems
The white dwarf mass distribution has been studied primarily at two extremes: objects that presumably evolved as single stars, and members of close binaries that likely underwent substantial interaction. This work considers the intermediate separation regime of ∼1 au and demonstrates how binary int...
