The University of Oklahoma received a $368,640 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Astronomical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049). The grant will fund research services focusing on constraining the evolutionary pathways of white dwarfs through crystallization studies, investigations into cooling anomalies, and analyses of white dwarf mergers. Products and services to be delivered include a new spectroscopic survey of white dwarfs within 100 parsecs and cooler than 5,000 Kelvin obtained using data from the Gaia satellite and Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Comparing the survey results to evolutionary models of white dwarf cooling will enable probing of crystallization physics, phase separation, and convective coupling across white dwarf mass ranges. Broader impacts include research opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students.
