• GYRE: An open-source stellar oscillation code based on a new Magnus Multiple Shooting Scheme (2013, background): “…in turn facilitating investigation of issues such as core rotation in RGB stars (e.g., Mosser et al. 2012), instability strips in white dwarfs (e.g., Fontaine & Brassard 2008), and the surprising incidence of opacity-driven oscillations in low-metallicity environments (e.g., Salmon et al. 2012).”
• A SPECTROSCOPIC SURVEY AND ANALYSIS OF BRIGHT, HYDROGEN-RICH WHITE DWARFS (2011, background): “These large amplitudes signify that Teff can easily swing back and forth by several hun- dred Kelvins resulting in the star moving in and out of the instability strip (Fontaine & Brassard 2008).”
• Magnetic White Dwarfs (2015, background): “Asteroseismology shows that the spin periods are typically a few days (Fontaine and Brassard 2008; Greiss et al. 2014) and that the angu- lar momentum of the stellar core is lost before the WD stage (Charpinet et al. 2009).”
• A COMPREHENSIVE SPECTROSCOPIC ANALYSIS OF DB WHITE DWARFS (2011, background): “Interestingly, the effect produced by the presence of small amounts of hydrogen on the theoretical blue edge of the instability strip has been presented in Figure 10 of Fontaine & Brassard (2008).”
• Spectroscopic analysis of DA white dwarfs with 3D model atmospheres (2013, background): “We note that recent theoretical determinations of the blue and red edge positions from asteroseismology (Fontaine & Brassard 2008; Córsico et al. 2012; van Grootel et al. 2012, 2013) are in agreement with the GB11 or earlier Gianninas et al. (2006) observed positions.”
• Evolutionary and pulsational properties of white dwarf stars (2010, background): “For recent excellent reviews about pulsating white dwarf stars we refer the reader to the papers of Winget & Kepler (2008) and Fontaine & Brassard (2008).”
• White Dwarf Rotation as a Function of Mass and a Dichotomy of Mode Line Widths: Kepler Observations of 27 Pulsating DA White Dwarfs through K2 Campaign 8 (2017, background): “The roughly 2–20 minute flux variations are known to result from surface temperature changes caused by non-radial g-mode pulsations excited by surface convection (see reviews by Fontaine & Brassard 2008; Winget & Kepler 2008; Althaus et al. 2010).”
• NEW COOLING SEQUENCES FOR OLD WHITE DWARFS (2010, background): “Recent reviews on the properties and evolution of white dwarfs, and of their applications are those of Winget & Kepler (2008) and Fontaine & Brassard (2008).”
