Polluted white dwarfs reveal exotic mantle rock types on exoplanets in our solar neighborhood
While some exoplanets that once orbited Polluted white dwarfs are similar to Earth, most appear to have rock types that are exotic to our Solar System. We thus develop a new classification scheme to describe these new and novel lithologies that appear to be dominant among polluted white dwarfs.
