40 parsec sample of white dwarfs from Gaia

Our DR3 sample contains 1073 spectroscopically confirmed white dwarfs, with just 8 candidates within our volume remaining unconfirmed (99.3 per cent spectroscopic completeness). Additionally, 28 white dwarfs were not in our initial selection from Gaia DR3, most of which are in unresolved binaries.

We use Gaia DR3 photometry and astrometry to determine a uniform set of white dwarf parameters, including mass, effective temperature, and cooling age. We assess the demographics of the 40 pc sample, specifically magnetic fields, binarity, space density and mass and age distributions.
