Jun 6, 2017 at 16:21 comment added HDE 226868 Adrienne - Ah, I see. Thank you. I was wrong about the separation. @steverino .5 solar masses is actually pretty normal for a white dwarf.
Jun 6, 2017 at 14:50 comment added steverino .5 solar masses is way too small for a white dwarf. Your numbers need some rework
Jun 6, 2017 at 13:52 comment added Adrienne The Roche Lobes of these two stars would be hugely smaller than that of their orbital seperation and as such shouldn't see major acretion. At that distance it should be occasional small ones.
