论文摘要
白矮人（WDLF）的光度功能的形状对特征冷却时间敏感，因此，它可用于测试其他能量的存在或诸如替代物理理论所预测的能量的存在。但是，由于白矮人的物理特性与银河系的特性，星形形成历史（SFH）和IMF之间的堕落性，几乎总是有可能解释出任何因星形形成率引入的伪像的异常。为了解决这个问题，至少有两种可能性，在具有不同故事的人群中对WDLF的分析，例如光盘和光环，而搜索效果与SFH无关。用轴的情况说明了这些过程。
The shape of the luminosity function of white dwarfs (WDLF) is sensitive to the characteristic cooling time and, therefore, it can be used to test the existence of additional sources or sinks of energy such as those predicted by alternative physical theories. However, because of the degeneracy between the physical properties of white dwarfs and the properties of the Galaxy, the star formation history (SFH) and the IMF, it is almost always possible to explain any anomaly as an artifact introduced by the star formation rate. To circumvent this problem there are at least two possibilities, the analysis of the WDLF in populations with different stories, like disc and halo, and the search of effects not correlated with the SFH. These procedures are illustrated with the case of axions.
