Abstract:
We present the catalogue of 112 massive isolated white dwarfs, both
magnetic and nonmagnetic, with masses M>0.8M☉. Mass
determinations and other parameters of white dwarfs were compiled from
the available literature.
Description:
File 'tablea1.dat' contains individual data on 112 massive white
dwarfs. For each object we present WD (White Dwarf) designation by its
equatorial coordinates, white dwarf names (see files 'namesa1.dat' and
'table1.dat'), effective temperature Teff, logarithm of surface
gravity logg, mass M in solar masses, radius R in solar radii and
kilometers, mean surface magnetic field B_s, polar field B_p, distance
d in kiloparsecs, remarks, references, and other comments.
In the file 'table1.dat' data on each star were compressed to a single
row. Values of Teff, logg, mass, and remaining parameters presented
in that table are arithmetic averages of the individual data.
Cross-reference list for files 'tablea1.dat' and 'table1.dat' is given
in file 'refs.dat'.
File 'namesa1.dat' contains specific names of the white dwarf stars
from 'tablea1.dat' and 'table1.dat'.
