As part of an ongoing program to map better the empirical instability strip of pulsating ZZ Ceti white dwarfs, we present a brief progress report based on our last observing season. We discuss here high-speed photometric measurements for 6 new pulsators. These stars were selected on the basis of preliminary measurements of their effective temperature and surface gravity that placed them inside or near the known ZZ Ceti instability strip. We also report detection limits for a number of DA white dwarfs that showed no sign of variability. Finally, we revisit the ZZ Ceti star G232-38 for which we obtained improved high-speed photometry.

  1. Mode Instability and a Massive, Isolated Outburst in the Pulsating White Dwarf GD 1212

    astro-ph.SR 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    GD 1212 showed the largest recorded outburst in a DAV white dwarf, attributed to parametric instability, with refined 17-hour rotation from mode splittings and a failed outburst event.

  2. Constraints from parallaxes and average period spacings in the asteroseismic study of 8 DAVs

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Asymptotic period spacings plus Gaia parallaxes favor thick hydrogen layers in most of eight DAVs and give an upper limit M_env ≲ 10^{-2.2} for the helium-layer base.

  3. Asteroseismic study of KUV03442+0719 with parallax constraints

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The pulsations of KUV03442+0719 are fit about as well by a 0.465 M☉ carbon/oxygen-core model plus an unresolved companion as by a 0.270 M☉ helium-core model, so the star's true nature remains ambiguous.
