    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WD_J2147–4035

    The white dwarf existed for 10.21 ±0.22 Gyrs, meaning the total age is 10.7 ±0.3 Gyrs. [1] Cold white dwarfs are often strongly affected by collision induced absorption (CIA) of hydrogen. This can lead to faint optical red and infrared brightness. These white dwarfs are also called IR-faint white dwarfs. WD J2147–4035 is however very red (r ...

    About 6% of white dwarfs show infrared excess due to a disk around a white dwarf. [66] In the past only a relative small sample of white dwarf disks was known. [67] Due to advances in white dwarf detection (e.g. with Gaia or LAMOST) and improvement of WISE infrared catalogs with unWISE/CatWISE, the number has increased to hundreds of candidates.

    WD 0816–310 (PM J08186–3110) is a magnetic white dwarf with metal pollution, originating from the tidal disruption of a planetary body. The metals are guided by the magnetic field onto the surface of the white dwarf, creating a "scar" on the surface of the white dwarf.

    White dwarf: HD 49798: 0.0023 0.023 0.25 1,600 km (990 mi) 2021 White dwarfs are stellar remnants produced when a star with around 8 solar masses or less sheds its outer layers into a planetary nebula. The leftover core becomes the white dwarf. It is thought that white dwarfs cool down over quadrillions of years to produce a black dwarf. [14]
