Software
We have developed a sequence of programs designed to help astronomers do
time-series photometry. The sequence reflects the way this is done: one must
first acquire the data at the telescope, using a suitable photometer
(program: Q9), reduce the data (Qed), analyze the data (Qmrg, Qsft),
then interpret the data by fitting it with models of the astrophysical
processes believed to be operating in the star (WDEC, WD-40).

Dissertations
We have recently started an archive
for electronic copies of dissertations relevant to white dwarf stars. If
you know of a dissertation that should be included here and is available
electronically, please contact us
and we will gladly post it here.
