First solitary white dwarf | Van Maanen 2 | 1917 | Van Maanen's star is also the nearest solitary white dwarf | [4] | ||
First white dwarf with a planet | WD B1620−26 | 2003 | PSR B1620-26 b (planet) | This planet is a circumbinary planet, which circles both stars in the PSR B1620-26 system | [5][6] | |
First singular white dwarf with a planet | WD 1145+017 | 2015 | WD 1145+017 b | Planet is extremely small and is disintegrating. | ||
First white dwarf that is a pulsar | AR Scorpii A | 2016 | The star is in a binary system with a red dwarf | [7] |
