Scientific paper

Three white dwarfs, G8-7, G7-41, and G7-255, were examined for variability at Erwin W. Fick Observatory and Kitt Peak National Observatory. Data analysis by the maximum entropy method shows all three to be nonvariable in the period range 30 s to 1200 s. Upper limits on variability are placed at 0.006 to 0.02 mag. No evidence was found for variability at longer periods with higher amplitudes.
