LAMOST J2354 binary hosts an unseen massive white dwarf, study suggests

Astronomers from the Ohio State University (OSU) and University of Hawai'i have performed spectroscopic observations of a recently-discovered binary system known as LAMOST J2354, which contains a dark companion star. Results of the observational campaign, presented July 26 on the pre-print server arXiv, suggest that the unseen object is a massive white dwarf.
