Q&A: Normal Stars, White Dwarf Stars, and Star Clusters



Q:

I'm looking for a picture of a white dwarf from Chandra. I've looked through all the other images from your page but haven't been able to find one.

A:

Chandra has observed two white dwarfs sp far: Sirius B, and HZ 43, but I have yet to see any papers on it. As soon as the data is published, we will probably post it on our web site.
