| Abstract | Isabella Trierweiler is awarded an NSF Astronomy and Astrophysics Fellowship to carry out a program of research and education at Yale University. Polluted white dwarfs are stellar remnants which are actively accreting material from orbiting debris. Trierweiler will study these systems in order to gain insights into the compositions and motions of planetary systems. This will be done by combining new and existing observations of polluted white dwarfs in binary systems. The project will also creat |
