| Abstract: |
White dwarf plus main sequence binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky
Survey were selected for follow-up observations. Based on radial
velocity variations we have identified those systems that have gone
through a common envelope phase, the so called post common envelope
binaries (PCEBs). Further observations of the PCEBs candidates were
carried out to measure their orbital period. We present the orbital
period distribution of 65 systems detected as PCEB in an homogeneous
way and representative of the SDSS-WDMS population. |
