Ooh, a white dwarf “pulsar”!

Ooh, a white dwarf “pulsar”! Great quote: “We’ve known pulsing neutron stars for nearly fifty years, and some theories predicted white dwarfs could show similar behaviour. It’s very exciting that we have discovered such a system, and it has been a fantastic example of amateur astronomers and academics working together.”
