Magnetic White Dwarfs in the SDSS 100 pc Sample: Further Evidence of Two Formation Channels

Magnetic White Dwarfs in the SDSS 100 pc Sample: Further Evidence of Two Formation Channels

We conduct a model atmosphere analysis on all magnetic white dwarfs (MWDs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) 100 pc sample. We have 163 magnetic targets in this sample, 87 of which are new discoveries, making this the largest volume-limited survey of MWDs to date. We discuss the distribution of...
