Discovery of molecular hydrogen in white dwarf atmospheres.

XU S., JURA M., KOESTER D., KLEIN B. and ZUCKERMAN B.

Abstract (from CDS):

With the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope, we have detected molecular hydrogen in the atmospheres of three white dwarfs with effective temperatures below 14,000 K, G29-38, GD 133, and GD 31. This discovery provides new independent constraints on the stellar temperature and surface gravity of white dwarfs.
