We report a single-lined white dwarfâ€"main-sequence binary system, LAMOST J172900.17+652952.8, which is discovered by the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST)’s medium-resolution time-domain surveys. The radial-velocity semi-amplitude and orbital period of the optical visible star are measured by using follow-up observations with the Palomar 200 inch telescope and light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Thus the mass function of the invisible candidate white dwarf is derived, f (M 2) = 0.120 ± 0.003 M ⊙. The mass of the visible star is measured based on a spectral energy distribution fitting, M 1 = 0.81 â' 0.06 + 0.07 M ⊙ . Hence, the mass of its invisible companion is M 2 ≳ 0.63 M ⊙. The companion ought to be a compact object rather than a main-sequence star owing to the mass ratio q = M 2/ M 1 ≳ 0.78 and the single-lined spectra. The compact object is likely to be a white dwarf if the inclination angle is not small, i ≳ 40°. By using the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) near-UV flux, the effective temperature of the white dwarf candidate is constrained as T eff WD ≲ 12,000â€"13,500 K. It is difficult to detect white dwarfs which are outshone by their bright companions via single-epoch optical spectroscopic surveys. Therefore, optical time-domain surveys can play an important role in unveiling invisible white dwarfs and other compact objects in binaries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
