Magnetic Atmosphere Models for White Dwarfs with Heavy Elements
Abstract
We present selected results from our new code developed to produce synthetic spectra for highly magnetic white dwarfs with heavy elements. We solve the polarized radiative transfer equations and include line splitting of heavy elements (C, O, Ca, Mg and Na in particular) in the Paschen-Back (PB) regime for various magnetic field geometries. Application to magnetic Hot DQ and DZ white dwarfs are presented.
