note = "WHITE dwarf stars represent the final evolutionary state for most main-sequence stars. They cool slowly enough that even the oldest white dwarfs are still observable in sufficiently deep surveys and they therefore provide a record of the age and star-formation history of the local disk of the Milky Way 1-7 -and hence a useful constraint on the age of the Galaxy itself.",
