A cluster white-dwarf/M-dwarf binary with a 6.99-hour orbit provides the first precise pre/post-common-envelope benchmark, implying a 5.4-solar-mass progenitor and a common-envelope efficiency of either ≈0.99 (mid-AGB) or ≈0.05 (late-AGB).

A Framework for Linking Pre- and Post-Common Envelope Binary Properties with Star Clusters: The First Demonstration with a Massive White Dwarf+M Dwarf Binary in Alessi 12
